چکیده

The reaction between adsorbed ethylene and methylene species has been investigated on a molybdenum-aluminum alloy grown from Mo(CO)(6) on a planar alumina film formed on a Mo(100) single crystal in ultrahigh vacuum. Di-sigma-bonded ethylene reacts with carbene species, formed on the surface from methylene iodide, to form a C(3) metallacycle. This predominantly decomposes to yield propylene, while a smaller portion yields cross-metathesis products since (12)C(13)CH(4) is formed from reaction between (13)C(2)H(4) and (12)CH(2). This work demonstrates for the first time that the reaction proceeds in heterogeneous phase via a C(3) metallacycle as proposed in the Hérisson-Chauvin mechanism.

The adsorption of C3 hydrocarbons propylene, 1-iodopropane, and 1,3-diiodopropane is studied in ultrahigh vacuum on a molybdenum-aluminum alloy formed by molybdenum hexacarbonyl reaction with a planar alumina film grown on a Mo(100) substrate. Carbon-iodine bond scission occurs below approximately 200 K to deposit iodine, and form propyl species from 1-iodopropane and a C3 metallacycle from 1,3...

The chemistry of CH2I2 on MoAl alloy thin films formed on dehydroxylated alumina: insight into methylene insertion reactions.

The chemistry of diiodomethane is explored in ultrahigh vacuum on a MoAl alloy film grown on planar, dehydroxylated alumina by reaction with molybdenum hexacarbonyl. The majority of the diiodomethane forms methylene species below approximately 250 K, although a small proportion forms CH(2)I((ads)), which hydrogenates to form iodomethane. The majority ( approximately 90%) of the adsorbed methyle...

Interaction of molybdenum hexacarbonyl with dehydroxylated alumina thin films at high temperatures: Formation and removal of surface carbides

The reaction of Mo(CO)6 with thin films of dehydroxylated alumina grown on a Mo(1 0 0) substrate above 500 K is studied in ultrahigh vacuum using temperature-programmed desorption and Auger and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies. This results in the formation of a molybdenum carbide that incorporates a small amount of oxygen, where MoC is formed initially, becoming closer to Mo2C as the Mo(CO)6...
