Abstract:Gas phase cluster ions have been shown to serve as useful models for the interactions occurring on catalytic surfaces. Results presented herein show that charge state, size, oxidation state, and stoichiometry have an effect on the reactions between CO and preoxidized gold cluster ions and propylene and vanadium oxide cations and niobium oxide cations.
