摘要: 采用密度泛函理论对比研究了 Rh(111) 表面与 Rh@Cu(111) 表面合金上乙基加氢反应及 CO 插入反应过程. 结果发现, 与 Rh(111) 表面相比, Rh@Cu(111) 表面合金的集团效应和配体效应使得加氢反应的能垒降低了 0.12 eV, 而 CO 插入反应的却显著降低了 0.78 eV. 这表明 RhCu 合金催化剂可以有效地提高氢甲酰化反应的选择性.

Abstract: Selectivity-determining steps for ethylene hydroformylation, i.e., ethyl hydrogenation versus CO insertion on Rh(111) and Rh@Cu(111) surfaces were investigated by density functional theory calculations. Compared with the Rh(111) surface, the Rh@Cu(111) surface decreases the hydrogenation barrier by 0.12 eV and more significantly the CO insertion barrier by 0.78 eV due to the ensemble and ligand effects. This result indicates that Rh@Cu(111) alloy catalyst can improve the selectivity of the hydroformylation.
