Journal ArticleDOI

Spectroscopic Observation of Dual Catalytic Sites During Oxidation of CO on a Au/TiO2 Catalyst

TL;DR: Infrared-kinetic measurements indicate that O-O bond scission is activated by the formation of a CO-O2 complex at dual Ti-Au sites at the Au/TiO2 interface, and density functional theory calculations confirm this model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactivity of the Gold/Water Interface During Selective Oxidation Catalysis

TL;DR: Study of the mechanism of ethanol and glycerol oxidation to acids over various supported gold and platinum catalysts finds that oxygen atoms originating from hydroxide ions instead of molecular oxygen are incorporated into the alcohol during the oxidation reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactivity Theory of Transition-Metal Surfaces: A Brønsted−Evans−Polanyi Linear Activation Energy−Free-Energy Analysis

TL;DR: A detailed theoretical analysis of the factors that control reaction paths and corresponding potentialenergy surfaces of surface reactions will provide interesting new insights into the intricate relationship between the chemical bonding features, structure, and energies of transition states.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective hydrogenolysis of polyols and cyclic ethers over bifunctional surface sites on rhodium-rhenium catalysts.

TL;DR: The mechanistic insights from this work may be extended to provide a general description of a new class of bifunctional heterogeneous catalysts, based on the combination of a highly reducible metal with an oxophilic metal, for the selective C-O hydrogenolysis of biomass-derived feedstocks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemisorption of CO and mechanism of CO oxidation on supported platinum nanoclusters.

TL;DR: The data and their theoretical and mechanistic interpretations indicate that the remarkable structure insensitivity observed for CO oxidation reactions reflects average CO binding properties that are essentially independent of cluster size.
