2.3 Selective liquid‐phase oxidation reactions<br />
The analogue with oxidized silver is prepared by ion exchange either in solution by “metathesis<br />
precipitation” (2a) [93] or by calcination of a mixture of a homogeneous mixture of AgNO3 and<br />
H5PV2Mo10O40 (2b) [94].<br />

2.3 Selective liquid-phase oxidation reactions<br />
The most intensively studied liquid phase oxidations (Scheme 2‐2) are alcohol oxidation, olefin<br />
epoxidation and alkyl aromatics oxidation. Aerobic alcohol oxidation is a prominent field of research<br />
in gold catalysis. Silver and copper offer an alternative way by catalyzing the anaerobic<br />
dehydrogenation of alcohols achieving other chemoselectivites in selected cases. Olefin epoxidation<br />
by molecular oxygen is difficult to achieve in the absence of a sacrificial reductant; there are some<br />
examples with Au, but most studies rely on the use of peroxides as oxidants where the reaction rates<br />
are considerably higher. The radical side‐chain autoxidation of alkyl aromatic compounds was mainly<br />
investigated with silver and copper but gold also showed some potential which may be further<br />
deepened in the future. Another important metal‐induced autoxidation is cyclohexane oxidation to<br />
K/A oil. Gold was mainly used in combination with oxygen. Literature sees its catalytic activity<br />
somewhere between outstanding and almost negligible. Cu catalysts often require tert.‐butyl<br />
hydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant. Especially for Cu, ring hydroxylation of aryl compounds was<br />
extensively studied and is also summarized here. Analogue examples with Ag and Au are rare. Au‐<br />
catalyzed amine oxidation has emerged greatly in the recent years and may also offer opportunities<br />
for the other coinage metals. Finally, benzoquinone, sulfide and silane oxidation are fields were the<br />
amount of literature is still limited; silane oxidation is remarkable since water could be used as the<br />
oxidant.<br />

The comparison of the performance of different catalysts is difficult, since the catalyst<br />
activity greatly depends on the chosen reaction conditions and hence, on the degree of optimization<br />
of a catalytic reaction. Following the proposition by Mallat and Baiker [7], it will be assumed that the<br />
catalysts were tested close to optimal conditions. Where the reported data allow it, turn‐over<br />
frequencies (TOFs) will be used to describe and compare the catalytic activity based on the overall<br />
