摘要
The structure of 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) adsorbed on Cu(111) in a single monolayer form has been investigated using Cl K-edge near-edge X-ray absorption and normal-incidence standing X-ray wavefield absorption at the (111) reflection. These measurements indicate a small tilt (25-degrees) of the Cl-C axis from parallel to the surface, and two different equally occupied Cl-Cu layer spacings relative to the extended lattice planes of 1.0 and 1.6 angstrom. These results are found to be best reconciled with a structural model in which the DCE bonds with the Cl-C-C-Cl plane of the trans conformer perpendicular to the surface and the Cl atoms over atop adsorption sites, the Cu-Cl bondlength being compatible with the van der Waals radius for Cl. The possible role of a frustrated rotational mode of the adsorbed molecule leading to a "flipping" between two equivalent states is considered.
