The application and quantification of in situ copper K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES), when linked to independently made reactor based studies of methanol production, result in a majority relation between the production of Cu-I and methanol from methane that complies with the expectations of a two-electron mechanism founded upon Cu-II/Cu-I redox couples.
