From: Partial oxidation of methane to methanol on boron nitride at near critical acetonitrile
The effect of acetonitrile to oxygen molar ratio on direct methane oxidation to methanol in near supercritical acetonitrile. 9.5–95.7 mmol acetonitrile, − 30 °C cold feed, 163 mmol He, 120–124 mmol methane, 7.3–7.4 mmol of oxygen (without h-BN). All entries were carried out at 275 °C with 2.5 °C/min ramp rate, zero dwell time, and natural cooling to room temperature, 60 rpm stirring speed. Methanol yield was calculated based on the GC peak area calibration plot and reconfirmed with NMR. The standard deviation of the yield was calculated by replicating one experiment with comparison to NMR data.
