In the present review, the important and current developments of gold catalysts for a wide range of applications are comprehensively summarized. This review also provides a detailed study of the literature data concerning the preparation, characterization, and catalytic applications of gold catalysts. Additionally, the main aspects of using supported gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as catalysts for oxidation reactions are considered. In particular, the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde and the production of adipic acid from cyclohexane are discussed in detail. Lastly, the key properties of gold catalysts are described, and an outlook on the application of gold catalysts is presented.
