GeetharaniWe report photo-oxidative upcycling of polystyrene to benzoic acid via LMCT of a main group catalyst, BiCl3, which is commercially available and inexpensive. This additive-free reaction proceeds under mild conditions using oxygen as the sole oxidant.The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry
