No alteration of the electron state of the PtBi/C by vesicles was observed. However, FDCA was obtained under mild-temperature and base-free conditions. The yield of FDCA depended on the hydration nature of vesicles. It was therefore suggested that vesicles gave bound water as a novel driving force for the reaction. The present finding would explore an application of vesicles to new catalytic reactions that are different from conventional biochemical reactions. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShimanouchiToshinori en-aut-sei=Shimanouchi en-aut-mei=Toshinori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=DeguchiKoji en-aut-sei=Deguchi en-aut-mei=Koji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=YasuharaKazuma en-aut-sei=Yasuhara en-aut-mei=Kazuma kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KimuraYukitaka en-aut-sei=Kimura en-aut-mei=Yukitaka kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental, Life, Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental, Life, Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Division of Materials Science, Nara Institute of Science and Technology (NAIST) kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental, Life, Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University kn-affil= en-keyword=2,5-frandicarboxylic acid kn-keyword=2,5-frandicarboxylic acid en-keyword=metal-supported catalyst kn-keyword=metal-supported catalyst en-keyword=vesicles kn-keyword=vesicles END
