摘要
A molecular orbital study has been made of the first dehydrogenation step for methoxy adsorbed on Pt(111) and Cr(110) surfaces. The higher activation energy for this reaction on the Cr surface can be rationalized in terms of the higher charge transfer stabilization of CH3O(ads) on this surface compared to the Pt surface. That is, the more electropositive Cr surface is a stronger charge donor. However, it is found that in general the covalent components to the binding energies, the lone-pair donations from CH3O(ads) lone pairs to the surfaces, are also sensitive to the metal band position. Changes in these interactions influence the activation barriers.
