Abstract

Previous surface science studies on the chemistry of alkyl groups on various metal surfaces have revealed that their thermal decomposition often involves an initial β-H elimination step, in a fashion similar to that of alkyl ligands in organometallic compounds, to produce the corresponding alkene and surface hydrogen. 1 Since in most cases this β-H elimination reaction is dominant, much less is known about other hydrocarbon reactions such as R-or ...
