title: An easily accessible Re-based catalyst for the selective conversion of methanol: evidence for an unprecedented active site structure through combined operando techniques.
abstract: Heterogeneous Re/SiO(2) catalysts prepared using a one pot sol-gel synthesis were found to display high activity in the direct, selective methanol conversion to methylal, which is correlated to an unprecedented rhenium oxide structure.
