Dissociation of alkylamines adsorbed on iron and nickel
Abstract
Infrared spectra for methylamine, isopropylamine, dimethylamine, and trimethylamine adsorbed on iron and nickel have been obtained. Chemisorption of all four took place at room temperature without noticeable decomposition. When CO is coadsorbed with the amines, the secondary and tertiary amines decompose to give mainly adsorbed primary amine. The results are understandable within the framework of a simple molecular-orbital model of the adsorbed species. © 1981.
