Tailoring penta-coordinated aluminium species on silica–alumina <i>via</i> flame spray pyrolysis for enhanced arene benzylation
Flame-spray pyrolysis forms surface-distorted Al V species that interact with silanols to create strong Brønsted acid sites, markedly enhancing the acidity and catalytic performance of amorphous silica–alumina.
