aReaction conditions: glycerol 0.3 M in water, 4 : 1 NaOH : glycerol, glycerol : metal = 1000, 3 bar O2, 100 °C.
bTOF calculated at 30 min, moles of glycerol converted/moles of metal per h.
cSelectivity calculated after 6 h of reaction.
dKey: Glyc = glyceric acid, Tar = tartronic acid, C–C scission = C1 and C2 products, and Lac = lactic acid.
