Trends in the Activation of Light Alkanes on Transition-Metal Surfaces

Abstract: The first (oxidative) dehydrogenation step of light alkanes (ethane, propane, and n-butane) on transition-metal (closed-packed and stepped) surfaces is analyzed using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. It is shown that the transition-state energies (ΔE TS) of the C–H bond activation scale linearly with the corresponding final-state energies (ΔE FS), and all alkanes studied here share the same linear scaling relationships for the nonoxidative, oxygen-assisted, and hydroxyl-assisted reactions.

“…Conversely, density functional theory (DFT) is a powerful tool that can be used to investigate a detailed chemical reaction at the microscopic level. [13][14][15] To clarify the hydrogenation mechanism of CAL on Pt, Hu et al used a microkinetic model to investigate the reaction mechanism on flat Pt (111). [16,17] This pioneering work undoubtedly deepen our understanding on hydrogenation of 𝛼,𝛽-unsaturated aldehydes, especially on the 1,4-addition hydrogenation mechanism.…”

“…Thus, all correlated changes in the enthalpy of formation of the intermediates are propagated to the activation barrier. Since BEP relations are only approximate, we added a quasi‐random uncertainty via Sobol sequences to the intercept and slope of the BEP, [16] estimated from BEEF‐vdW calculations [42] (see Figure S6).…”
