Abstract: Disclosed is a novel catalyst having amine ligands for synthesizing methanol or its precursor. When the catalyst is allowed to react with an alkane in the presence of an acid, at least one C—H bond of the alkane is catalytically oxidized. Therefore, the catalyst is suitable for use in forming an alkyl ester from an alkane.
