Phosphorus-doped h-boron nitride as an efficient metal-free catalyst for direct dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene

Abstract

The N2P\ue001O and N3P–OH sites of PBN synergistically catalyzed the direct dehydrogenation reaction of ethylbenzene with a styrene production rate of 6.63 mmolST g−1 h−1 even after 100 h.
