N2 emission in NO and N2O reduction on Rh(100) and Rh(110)

The angular distribution of desorbing N(2) was studied in both the thermal decomposition of N(2)O(a) on Rh(100) at 60-140 K and the steady-state NO (or N(2)O) + D(2) reaction on Rh(100) and Rh(110) at 280-900 K. In the former, N(2) desorption shows two peaks at around 85 and 110 K. At low N(2)O coverage, the desorption at 85 K collimates at about 66 degrees off normal towards the [001] direction, whereas at high coverage, it sharply collimates along the surface normal. In the NO reduction on Rh(100), the N(2) desorption preferentially collimates at around 71 degrees off normal towards the [001] direction below about 700 K, whereas it collimates predominantly along the surface normal at higher temperatures. At lower temperatures, the surface nitrogen removal in the NO reduction is due to the process of NO(a) + N(a) --> N(2)O(a) --> N(2)(g) + O(a). On the other hand, in the steady-state N(2)O + D(2) reaction on Rh(110), the N(2) desorption collimates closely along the [001] direction (close to the surface parallel) below 340 K and shifts to ca. 65 degrees off normal at higher temperatures. In the reduction with CO, the N(2) desorption collimates along around 65 degrees off normal towards the [001] direction above 520 K, and shifts to 45 degrees at 445 K with decreasing surface temperature. It is proposed that N(2)O is oriented along the [001] direction on both surfaces before dissociation and the emitted N(2) is not scattered by adsorbed hydrogen.     

Kinetics and dynamics of N2 formation in a steady-state N2O + CO reaction on Pd(110)

The N(2)O decomposition kinetics and the product (N(2) and CO(2)) desorption dynamics were studied in the course of a catalyzed N(2)O+CO reaction on Pd(110) by angle-resolved mass spectroscopy combined with cross-correlation time-of-flight techniques. The reaction proceeded steadily above 400 K, and the kinetics was switched at a critical CO/N(2)O pressure ratio. The ratio was about 0.03 at 450 K and reached approximately 0.08 at higher temperatures. Below it, the reaction was first order in CO, and negative orders above it. Throughout the surveyed conditions, the N(2) desorption sharply collimated along about 45 degrees off the normal toward the [001] direction. Desorbing N(2) showed translational temperatures in the range of 2000-5000 K. It is proposed that the decomposition proceeds in N(2)O(a) oriented along the [001] direction. On the other hand, the CO(2) desorption sharply collimated along the surface normal, showing a translational temperature of about 1600 K.     

The collimation angle shift of desorbing product N2 in a steady-state N2O+CO reaction on Rh(110)

The angular distribution of desorbing product N2 was studied in N2O decompositions on Rh(110) in the temperature range of 60-700 K. The N2 desorption collimates along 62 degrees -68 degrees off normal toward either the [001] or [001] direction in a transient N2O decomposition below ca. 470 K or in the steady-state N2O+CO reaction above 540 K. In the steady-state reaction at the temperature from ca. 470 to 540 K, however, the collimation angle shifts from 62 degrees to 45 degrees with decreasing surface temperature. This angle shift is ascribed to the steric hindrance by coadsorbed CO because the N2 collimation in transient N2O decomposition at around 65 degrees is recovered in the range of 380-500 K by an abrupt CO pressure drop followed by the decrease in CO coverage. N2O is oriented along the [001] direction before dissociation. A scattering model of the nascent N2 by adsorbed CO is proposed, yielding smaller collimation angles.     

Inclined N2 desorption in N2O reduction by D2 and CO on Pd(110)

Inclined N2 desorption was examined in the course of a catalyzed N2O + D2 (or CO) reaction on Pd(110) by angle-resolved mass spectroscopy combined with cross-correlation time-of-flight techniques. N2 desorption collimated at around 45 degrees off the normal toward the [001] direction in the temperature range of 400-800 K. Its collimation angle and kinetic energy were insensitive to both the surface temperature and surface conditions throughout the kinetic transition. It is proposed that this peculiar N2 desorption is induced by the decomposition of N2O oriented along the [001] direction.     

Effect of co-adsorbed CO and reaction temperature on the dynamics of N2 desorption under steady-state N2O-CO reaction on Rh(110)

We have investigated the effect of co-absorbed CO and reaction temperature on the angular distribution of N(2) desorption by N(2)O decomposition under the steady state of N(2)O-CO reaction on Rh(110). Spatial distributions of desorbing product N(2) emission have been measured at various surface temperatures and CO coverages. The decomposed N(2) collimates at 48°-61° off normal in the parallel plane to [001] and [110] directions, indicating that adsorbed N(2)O just before the decomposition is oriented along the [001] direction. Although the inclined and collimated N(2) desorption is always observed at any steady-state CO coverage and reaction temperature, the shape of the collimated N(2) distribution varied dependent on the co-adsorbed CO coverage. The distribution becomes sharp and shifts toward the surface normal direction with increasing CO coverage. These effects of adsorbed CO on the angular distribution of N(2) are interpreted by the collision of desorbed N(2) with co-adsorbed CO.     

Spatial distributions of desorbing products in steady-state NO and N2O reductions on Pd(110)

The angular and velocity distributions of desorbing product N(2) were examined over the crystal azimuth in steady-state NO+CO and N(2)O+CO reactions on Pd(110) by cross-correlation time-of-flight techniques. At surface temperatures below 600 K, N(2) desorption in both reactions splits into two directional lobes collimated along 41 degrees -45 degrees from the surface normal toward the [001] and [001] directions. Above 600 K, the normally directed N(2) desorption is enhanced in the NO reduction. Each product desorption component, as well as CO(2), shows a fairly asymmetric distribution about its collimation axis. Two factors, i.e., the anisotropic site structures and the reactant orientation and movements, are operative to induce such asymmetry, depending on the product emission mechanism.     

Inclined N2 desorption in a steady-state NO + CO reaction on Pt(100)

The angular and velocity distributions of desorbing products N2 and CO2 were studied in a steady-state NO + CO reaction on Pt(100). From the observation of the inclined N2 desorption, a contribution of the intermediate N2O decomposition pathway was first proposed on this surface. On the other hand, CO2 desorption collimated along the surface normal.     

Decomposition of Nitrogen Oxides on Palladium and Angle-Resolved Measurements of Desorbing Products

Recent angle-resolved measurements of desorbing products were reviewed for decomposition of nitrogen oxides on noble metals. Two pathways for the removal of adsorbed nitrogen atoms, i.e., N(a) + NO(a) N₂O(a) N₂(g) + O(a) and 2N(a) N₂(g), were examined typically on Pd(110). The former takes place in the presence of gaseous CO and shows two-directional N₂ desorption collimated far from the surface normal in the normally directed plane along the [001] direction. The latter does not contribute in CO + NO reaction on Pd(110). The model proposed for the inclined desorption was also explained.

Role of adsorbed NO in N2O decomposition over iron-containing ZSM-5 catalysts at low temperatures

Transient response and temperature-programmed desorption/reaction (TPD/TPR) methods were used to study the formation of adsorbed NO(x) from N2O and its effect during N2O decomposition to O2 and N2 over FeZSM-5 catalysts at temperatures below 653 K. The reaction proceeds via the atomic oxygen (O)(Fe) loading from N2O on extraframework active Fe(II) sites followed by its recombination/desorption as the rate-limiting step. The slow formation of surface NO(x,ads) species was observed from N2O catalyzing the N2O decomposition. This autocatalytic effect was assigned to the formation of NO(2,ads) species from NO(ads) and (O)(Fe) leading to facilitation of (O)(Fe) recombination/desorption. Mononitrosyl Fe2+(NO) and nitro (NO(2,ads)) species were found by diffuse reflectance infrared fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) in situ at 603 K when N2O was introduced into NO-containing flow passing through the catalyst. The presence of NO(x,ads) does not inhibit the surface oxygen loading from N2O at 523 K as observed by transient response. However, the reactivity of (O)(Fe) toward CO oxidation at low temperatures (<523 K) is drastically diminished. Surface NO(x) species probably block the sites necessary for CO activation, which are in the vicinity of the loaded atomic oxygen.     

The formation of NO+ from the reaction of N2(2+) with O2

We have studied the potentially ionospherically significant reaction between N(2)2+ with O2 using position-sensitive coincidence spectroscopy. We observe both nondissociative and dissociative electron transfer reactions as well as two channels involving the formation of NO+. The NO+ product is formed together with either N+ and O in one bond-forming channel or O+ and N in the other bond-forming channel. Using the scattering diagrams derived from the coincidence data, it seems clear that both bond-forming reactions proceed via a collision complex [N2O2]2+. This collision complex then decays by loss of a neutral atom to form a daughter dication (NO2(2+) or N2O2+), which then decays by charge separation to yield the observed products.

Heterogeneous chemistry of the NO3 free radical and N2O5 on decane flame soot at ambient temperature: reaction products and kinetics

The interaction of NO3 free radical and N2O5 with laboratory flame soot was investigated in a Knudsen flow reactor at T = 298 K equipped with beam-sampling mass spectrometry and in situ REMPI detection of NO2 and NO. Decane (C10H22) has been used as a fuel in a co-flow device for the generation of gray and black soot from a rich and a lean diffusion flame, respectively. The gas-phase reaction products of NO3 reacting with gray soot were NO, N2O5, HONO, and HNO3 with HONO being absent on black soot. The major loss of NO3 is adsorption on gray and black soot at yields of 65 and 59%, respectively, and the main gas-phase reaction product is N2O5 owing to heterogeneous recombination of NO3 with NO2 and NO according to NO3 + {C} --> NO + products. HONO was quantitatively accounted for by the interaction of NO2 with gray soot in agreement with previous work. Product N2O5 was generated through heterogeneous recombination of NO3 with excess NO2, and the small quantity of HNO3 was explained by heterogeneous hydrolysis of N2O5. The reaction products of N2O5 on both types of soot were equimolar amounts of NO and NO2, which suggest the reaction N2O5 + {C} --> N2O3(ads) + products with N2O3(ads) decomposing into NO + NO2. The initial and steady-state uptake coefficients gamma 0 and gamma ss of both NO3 and N2O5 based on the geometric surface area continuously increase with decreasing concentration at a concentration threshold for both types of soot. gamma ss of NO3 extrapolated to [NO3] --> 0 is independent of the type of soot and is 0.33 +/- 0.06 whereas gamma ss for [N2O5] --> 0 is (2.7 +/- 1.0) x 10(-2) and (5.2 +/- 0.2) x 10(-2) for gray and black soot, respectively. Above the concentration threshold of both NO3 and N2O5, gamma ss is independent of concentration with gamma ss(NO3) = 5.0 x 10(-2) and gamma ss(N2O5) = 5.0 x 10(-3). The inverse concentration dependence of gamma below the concentration threshold reveals a complex reaction mechanism for both NO3 and N2O5. The atmospheric significance of these results is briefly discussed.     

Surface-nitrogen removal in a steady-state NO + H2 reaction on Pd(110)

Surface-nitrogen removal steps were analyzed in the course of a catalyzed NO + H(2) reaction on Pd(110) by angle-resolved mass spectroscopy combined with cross-correlation time-of-flight techniques. Four removal steps, i.e., (i) the associative process of nitrogen atoms, 2N(a) --> N(2)(g), (ii) the decomposition of the intermediate, NO(a) + N(a) --> N(2)O(a) --> N(2)(g) + O(a), (iii) its desorption, N(2)O(a) --> N(2)O(g), and (iv) the desorption as ammonia, N(a) + 3H(a) --> NH(3)(g), are operative in a comparable order. Above 600 K, process (i) is predominant, whereas the others largely contribute below 600 K. Process (iv) becomes significant at H(2) pressures above a critical value, about half the NO pressure. Hydrogen was a stronger reagent than CO toward NO reduction and relatively enhanced the N(a) associative process.     

Ferromagnetic coupling promoted by kappa3N:kappa2N bridging system

Syntheses, structures, and magnetic properties of novel trinuclear complexes of the same motif [M{Cu(pz2bg)2}M]4+ (M = CuII, NiII, CoII, MnII), catena-[Cu2{Cu(pz2bg)2}(Hpz)2(PhSO3)2](PhSO3)2.4H2O (2.4H2O), [Ni2{Cu(pz2bg)2}(MeOH)2(H2O)4](NO3)4 (3), [Co2{Cu(pz2bg)2}(NO3)2(EtOH)2](NO3)2 (4), and [Mn2{Cu(pz2bg)2}(NO3)4(MeCN)2] (5), which include the complex ligand [Cu(pz2bg)2] (1), are reported (Hpz = pyrazole, pz2bg- = di(pyrazolecarbimido)aminate; bispyrazolyl derivative of biguanidate). The reaction of Cu(ClO4)2.6H2O, sodium dicyanamide, Hpz, and PhSO3H.H2O (1:2:4:4) in MeOH yielded blue crystals of [Cu2(1)(Hpz)2(PhSO3)2](PhSO3)2.4H2O (2.4H2O). In 2, the tricopper(II) units, which consist of two Cu(II) ions bridged by 1, are linked by benzenesulfonate anions to form a ladder structure. Complex 1 was isolated by removing the terminal Cu(II) ions from 2 with use of Na(4)edta. Complexes 3-5 were obtained by the reaction of 1 with an excess of each M(II) ion. In 2-5, the adjoining metal ions are ferromagnetically coupled via the pz2bg- ligand with J values of +7.2(1), +7.5(1), +2.7(1), and +0.3(1) cm(-1), respectively, using a spin Hamiltonian H = -2J(S(M1)S(Cu) + S(Cu)S(M2)). The ferromagnetic interaction was attributed to the strict orthogonality of magnetic dsigma orbitals, which are controlled by the kappa3N:kappa2N bridging geometry of the pz2bg- ligands.     

The chemistry of the fac-[Re(CO)2(NO)]2+ fragment in aqueous solution

The anions [ReX3(CO)2(NO)]- (with X = Cl, 1; X = Br, 2) have been prepared with different counterions. Complex 1 was found to lose its chloride ligands in water within 24 h. The [Re(H2O)3(CO)2(NO)]2+ cation obtained after hydrolysis is a strong acid, which consequently undergoes a slow condensation reaction in water to form the very stable [Re(mu3-O)(CO)2(NO)]4 cluster 4 at pH > 2, that precipitates from the aqueous solution and is insoluble also in organic solvents. Fast deprotonation of [Re(H2O)3(CO)2(NO)]2+ did not lead to 4 but rather to the mononuclear species [Re(OH)(H2O)2(CO)2(NO)]+. Subsequent attack of OH- at a CO group resulted in the formation of a rhenacarboxylic acid and its carboxylate anion. For solutions of even higher pH, IR spectroscopy provided evidence for the formation of a Re(C(O)ON(O)) species. These processes were found to be reversible on lowering the pH. Starting from cluster 4 it was possible to obtain complexes of the types [ReX(CO)2(NO)L2] or [Re(CO)2(NO)L3](L2 = 2-picolinate, 2,2'-bipyridine, L-phenylalanate; L3 = tris(pyrazolyl)methane, 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane) in the presence of an acid in protic solvents, but only in low yields. In further synthetic studies, complexes 1 and 2 were found to be superior starting materials for substitution reactions to form [ReX(CO)2(NO)L2] or [Re(CO)2(NO)L3] complexes.

Ab initio calculations of nitrogen oxide reactions: formation of N2O2, N2O3, N2O4, N2O5, and N4O2 from NO, NO2, NO3, and N2O

Ab initio computational methods were used to obtain Delta(r)H(o), Delta(r)G(o), and Delta(r)S(o) for the reactions 2 NO <=> N(2)O(2) (I), NO+NO(2) <=> N(2)O(3) (II), 2 NO(2) <=> N(2)O(4) (III), NO(2)+NO(3) <=> N(2)O(5) (IV), and 2 N(2)O <=> N(4)O(2) (V) at 298.15 K. Optimized geometries and frequencies were obtained at the CCSD(T) level for all molecules except for NO, NO(2), and NO(3), for which UCCSD(T) was used. In all cases the aug-cc-pVDZ (avdz) basis set was employed. The electronic energies of all species were obtained from complete basis set extrapolations (to aug-cc-pV5Z) using five different extrapolation methods. The [U]CCSD(T)/avdz geometries and frequencies of the N(x)O(y) compounds are compared with literature values, and problems associated with the values and assignments of low-frequency modes are discussed. The standard entropies are compared with values cited in the NIST/JANAF tables [NIST-JANAF Thermochemical Tables, J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data Monograph No. 9, 4th ed. edited by M. W. Chase, Jr. (American Chemical Society and American Institute of Physics, Woodbury, NY, 1988)]. With the exception of I, in which the dimer is weakly bound, and V, for which thermodynamic data appears to be lacking, the calculated standard thermodynamic functions of reaction are in good agreement with literature values obtained both from statistical mechanical and various equilibrium methods. A multireference-configuration interaction calculation (MRCI+Q) for I provides a D(e) value that is consistent with previous calculations. The combined uncertainties of the NIST/JANAF values for Delta(r)H(o), Delta(r)G(o), and Delta(r)S(o) of II, III, and IV are discussed. The potential surface for the dissociation of N(2)O(4) was explored using multireference methods. No evidence of a barrier to dissociation was found.     

A new route to coordination complexes of nitroxyl (HN=O) via insertion reactions of nitrosonium triflate with transition-metal hydrides

Nitrosonium triflate reacts with cold methylene chloride solutions of mer,trans-ReH(CO)3(PPh3)2 (1) with 1,1-insertion of NO+ into the Re-H bond to give the orange nitroxyl complex [mer,trans-Re(NH=O)(CO)3(PPh3)2][SO3CF3] (3) in 86% isolated yield. Use of [NO][PF6] or [NO][BF4] gives analogous insertion products at low temperature, which decompose on warning to ambient temperature to the fluoride complex mer,trans-ReF(CO)3(PPh3)2 (4). A related 1,1-insertion is observed in the reaction of 1 with [PhN2][PF6] in acetone that affords the yellow-orange phenyldiazene salt [mer,trans-Re(NH=NPh)(CO)3(PPh3)2][PF6] (2), which has been characterized by X-ray crystallographic methods. The methyl derivative mer,trans-Re(CH3)(CO)3(PPh3)2 (5) also undergoes a 1,1-insertion reaction with [NO][SO3CF3] to give the nitrosomethane adduct [mer,trans-Re{N(CH3)=O}(CO)3(PPh3)2][SO3CF3] (6) as red crystals in 75% yield. The nitroxyl complex [cis,trans-OsBr(NH=O)(CO)2(PPh3)2][SO3CF3] (8) can be similarly prepared as orange crystals in 52% yield by reaction of cis,trans-OsHBr(CO)2(PPh3)2 (7) with [NO][SO3CF3] in cold methylene chloride solution.
