direct oxidation of alkanes to ketones
The direct oxidation of alkanes to ketones refers to a chemical reaction in which an alkane compound is transformed into a ketone compound through the addition of oxygen atoms. This process involves the removal of hydrogen atoms from the alkane and the simultaneous introduction of oxygen atoms to create the ketone functional group.
