Highly efficient synthesis of benzyl benzoate directly from self-coupling of benzyl alcohol in water

Benzyl benzoate (BB), an important ester, still demands for green synthesis routes. In this work, by size regulation and proper functionalization of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as the support of gold catalyst, this ester can be synthesized very efficiently directly from benzyl alcohol via oxidative coup...
