High yield synthesis of propanal from methane and air

High yield synthesis of propanal from methane and air can be obtained in a single pass at atmospheric pressure. Three catalytic processes are combined to give 13% yield of propanal based on total methane input. Ethene is made from the oxidative coupling reaction and carbon monoxide and hydrogen is g...
