Abstract
First-principles calculations support the hypothesis that the appropriate spacing between Pd monomers controls the catalytic activity of Pd/Au catalysts in the vinyl acetate formation only if a vinyl surface species is involved in the rate-determining step of the reaction, opening new questions on these relevant catalytic systems. © 2009 The Royal Society of Chemistry.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
