Abstract
The superconducting oxides LnBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{7-x} (Ln=Y, Gd, Er, Yb, Lu) showed poor selectivity in the oxidative coupling of methane. The addition of 0.5 mol. %Li_{2}O to these materials considerably enhanced the yield of C_{2} hydrocarbons. This effect was related to both lower redox property and higher basicity of Li-doped catalysts as compared to those of undoped ones.
