Figure Abstract

Caption

Using green, safe water as the oxygen source, carbon materials with superior olefin adsorption and oxidation performance facilitate the generation of styrene-derived radical cations, enabling efficient and selective synthesis of high-value tetrahydrofurans. Mechanistic investigations confirm the critical coupling between in-situ water-generated •OH and styrene-derived radical cations.
