Abstract
Ethylene adsorption on a Pt/Au/SiO2 catalyst (2 wt% Pt; Au/Pt atomic ratio of 10) was studied using adsorption microcalorimetry and FTIR spectroscopy. Ethylene adsorption at 300 K on Pt/Au/SiO2 produced π‐bonded, di‐σ‐bonded, and ethylidyne species with an initial heat of 140 kJ/mol, compared to a heat of 157 kJ/mol for Pt/SiO2 on which only ethylidyne species formed. At 203 and 263 K, ethylene adsorbed on Pt as well as on Au surface atoms for the Pt/Au/SiO2 catalyst. Quantum chemical, DFT calculations indicate that Au exerts a significantly smaller electronic effect on Pt than does addition of Sn to Pt.
