Coadsorption of Nitriles and Co On Cu-Zsm-5: An In Situ FTIR Spectroscopic Study
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
The coadsorption of acetonitrile (ACN) or deuterated acetonitrile (dACN) with CO at Cu-ZSM-5 reveals several interesting features concerning the partial valency of Cu. Specifically, CO binds at Cu+1 and Cu° centers (in the absence of preadsorbed ACN) and exhibits C-O stretching frequencies of 2157 cm−1 and 2112 cm−1, respectively. Carbon monoxide readily adsorbs at an ACN (or dACN) saturated Cu-ZSM-5 and exhibits a C-O stretch of 2122 cm−1, a value more consistent with a partially reduced Cu+1 center. Furthermore, the IR cross section for the CN stretch in a number of nitriles (ACN, dACN, and benzonitrile) coadsorbed with CO displays interesting effects attributed to rehybridization and changes in CN dipole moment.
