Control of Ethylene Epoxidation Selectivity by Surface Oxametallacycles

Linic, Suljo, Barteau, Mark A.·2003·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

Surface science experiments, DFT calculations, and kinetic isotope effect data are utilized to understand the elementary steps that govern the selectivity of silver catalysts for the partial oxidation of ethylene to produce ethylene oxide. It is proposed that selective and unselective pathways proceed via a common intermediate, the surface oxametallacycle. The structures of the transition states leading from this intermediate to selective and unselective products are calculated. From the calculated Gibbs free energies of activation for competing pathways, it is possible to predict selectivity to ethylene oxide as well as the magnitude of the kinetic isotope effect. The proposed mechanism is qualitatively and quantitatively in accord with experimental results.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
