title: Generation of methoxide from methane and oxygen under mild conditions over an Sm2O3 catalyst investigated by in situ IR spectroscopy.
abstract: The generation of methoxide over an Sm2O3 catalyst was clearly observed under a CH4-O2 atmosphere at 323 K by in situ Fourier transform IR spectroscopy.
