Reaction of Adsorbed CO with Methanol and Ethanol on Pt Electrode: Estimation of Rate Constants
Keyword(s):
It is well accepted that adsorbed CO (COad) on Pt electrode reacts with water (or oxygenated species). We have recently found that COad also reacts with methanol and ethanol to form methyl formate (COad + CH3OH → HCOOCH3) and ethyl formate (COad + C2H5OH → HCOOC2H5), respectively, by using surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy and high-performance liquid chromatography. In the present report, we estimate the rate constants of the reactions by considering that the reactions proceed via Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism. The rate constants are estimated to be in the order of 0.1 s-1.
