title: Efficient and selective epoxidation of styrene with TBHP catalyzed by Au(25) clusters on hydroxyapatite.
abstract: Au(25) clusters supported on hydroxyapatite oxidized styrene in toluene with 100% conversion and 92% selectivity to the epoxide, under optimum conditions and using anhydrous tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as an oxidant.
