Abstract
Identifying active catalysts for the conversion of alcohols into aldehydes or ketones and molecular hydrogen is highly desirable. Here the authors develop and validate against experiments a screening model based on DFT calculations and scaling relationships for identifying alcohol dehydrogenation catalysts.
