title = "Catalytic chemistry on oxide nanostructures",
abstract = "In this chapter we review distinct well-defined planar models to illustrate the unique chemical properties that can be realized by oxide nanostructuring in the form of continuous ultra-thin films, extended islands and/or supported nanoclusters. The highlighted systems include metastable PdO films for C–H bond activation, multifunctional catalytic sites at copper/cerium-oxide island interfaces for water-gas shift reactions, and (WO3)3 and (MoO3)3 nanoclusters with active dioxo, O=M=O, moieties for dehydration and partial oxidation of alcohols.",
