Insight into selective oxidation of alcohol on Au-Pd catalysts : a DFT study

First-principles calculations within the density functional theory (DFT) framework were used to investigate selective oxidation of alcohol on Au-Pd catalysts. The selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol and 1 ,2-propanediol were studied, concerning mainly on the activity and selectivity, respectively.
