Effect of molybdenum addition to Rh/SiO/sub 2/ catalysts: appearance of a second rhodium dicarbonyl species
Abstract
The effects of molybdenum addition to silica-supported rhodium have been studied by using infrared spectroscopy. A new rhodium dicarbonyl species with characteristic bands at 2110 and 2052 cm/sup -1/ was observed during treatment of Rh-Mo/SiO/sub 2/ catalysts with CO at room temperature following reaction of nitric oxide with CO over the catalysts at 200/sup 0/C. These bands are approximately 15 cm/sup -1/ higher than the bands usually reported for the rhodium dicarbonyl species. Infrared spectra show the presence of both rhodium dicarbonyl species simultaneously which suggests that the new species is not a shifted form of the lower frequency species, but rather a new entity. It is also observed that the new species is much less stable in a reducing atmosphere than the lower frequency species. It is therefore proposed that the new dicarbonyl species contains a more oxidized form of rhodium than the traditional Rh/sup +/ dicarbonyl species and that the addition of molybdenum promotes this increased oxidation of the Rh surface sites.
