OSTI ID:5735493

Results of H - D exchange between indole and its methyl derivatives and D/sub 2/O over metallic Pt, Rh, and Pd are reported. The composition of the reaction mixture after the isotopic exchange was determined by mass spectrometry. The order of reactivity of the metals was Pt>Pd>Rh. It was determined that it was only the heterocycle ..pi..-electron system that interacts with the surface and mainly the hydrogens at C/sub 2/ and C/sub 3/ that undergo exchange and not those bonded to the N. (BLM)
