Abstract

The adsorption of C2 N2 on Pt(ll!) results in two descr-utin

states (ad). The a state, Tma x = 368K, is due to the desorption

of molecularly adsorbed C2 N2. The - state, Tmax = 730K, may be

due to the recombination of adsorbed CN groups or the deccm.z-

sition of an extended (CN)x polymer. Coadsorption of H2 and C N

results in a surface nitrene which decomposes to give back H2 Rnd

C2N2 at 430K. Decomposition of ethylenediamine results in the

same species. Dehydrogenation of ethylene-d4 -diamine shows that

the amine hydrogens are removed first in this process followed at

430K by the removal of the hydrogens from the carbons liberating

C2 N2 as the final product.

1. INTRODUCTION

Recently there have been several studies of the bonding and

chemistry of organic cyanides on the surfaces of a varie-v of

single crystal metals; CH 3CN (10) , CH 3NC (10) , HCN (2,3) , C2N2

(1,2,4-6,10,12-14) , and C 146 (11) have been the objects of

studies on various surfaces of Pt, Ni, and Cu.

The oxidation of C2N2 has been studied on Cu4!' The thermal

chemistry of C 2 has been studied previous-yon ?'o0 I4 y,

14) , Pt(110) (2,6), Pt(11 ) (;2) and a steppoed Pt su:rface wit-

Pt(1ll) terraces (5) . Only C 2N2 is observed as a desorotion

product from Pt surfaces. in all of these cases three descro::cn

states are observed (a, all 32 ) . The a state desorbs in t-e

temperature range of 370 K (for the Pt(1116) to 460 K (for the

Pt(1l0) surface). The a1 state desorbs in the range ES0 K - 690

K. The 82 state desorbs in the range 750 K to above 3CO K. The

present interpretation of the a state is that it is due to mole-

cularly adsorbed cyanogen. Two interpretations of :-e 3 states

have been put forward. Lambert, et. a!. (2) have sucoeste= tha-

the S states are due to the recombination of CN oroups, while

Netzer, et. al. (4) have proposed the existence of a paracyanogen

like overlayer.

In this oaper we describe the chemistry of C N2 , the cca_-

sorption chemistry of H2 and C2N2, and the deczmpos:-ion of

ethylenediamine on Pt(l1l).

2. EXPERIMENTAL

All experiments were performed in a stainless steel ultra-

high vacuum chamber with a base pressure of less than 1 X 10-

torr. The system is equipped with four-grid LEZD optics, a UT:

100C quadrupole mass spectrometer and an argon ion gun. Auger

analysis was performed by using the LEED optics as a retarding

field analyzer. The mass spectrometer is multiolexel with an 13M

Personal Computer, which performs at su::ic:en - sed to allow

the moni-oring of sixteen seoarate masses and the zrvyszal -eer-

ature every second. The Intel 3037 mah eatics coorocesso:

used to aid in signal averaging of the mass and temperature

signals and in evaluating a fourth order polynomia! to correct

for non-linearities in the thermocouole voltage. The co=pu-er

has also been set up to take Auger spectra and to produce hard-

copy output on a dot matrix printer of both the Auger and thermal

desorption spectra.2

The crystal used has approximately 0.5 cm surface area on

both sides and is 1.5 mm thick. The crystal is spat-welded to a

platinum wire which is attached between two copper rods. The

crystal is resistively heated by a dc current through the copper

rods and the spot welded Pt wire. The temperature ramp is forced

to be linear by a simple feedback circuit which senses the therm-

ocouple voltage and controls the dc power supply.

The crystal temperature is monitored by a chrcme!-alume

thermocouple spot-welded to the edge of the crystal. The Cocoer

rods are also in thermal contact throuch saoon*ra washers wi:n a

The carbon and ni- trogen coverages on the surface were fcl-

ratio (I to 272 to I at 381 corrected for the Pt n ensiv at

of peak area, a/S, is significantly larger in te case of the

coadsorptio than on the clean surface (Fig. 4). The ratio of

integrated intensity in the a peak (including the new 430 K

state) to the a peak is approximately 1.1 as opposed to the vaue

of 0.5 for adsorption on clean Pt(ll). This is not the case if

H2 is adsorbed after the C 2 2 * For postadsorbed H2 the a/3 ra-io

is 0.3, the same as in the absence of H,. A i:_r7 enhan-

of the a peak has been observed by Lambert, et. al. '61 in exper-

men:s on the coadsorption of C N2 -nd C o- ._ P "

our experiments the a peak is somewhat narrower in the aresence

of H2 (compare figures 1 and 2) . Lambert also coadscrbed 10 r

C2N 2 with 0.3 L H2 and recorded a significant amount of HCN

evolving from the surface of a Pt(!!01 crystal (6). No"2

spectrum was reported in that study. We also have noted small

amounts of HCN in the desorption spectra. However, a small HON

imourit in the cyanogen makes quan-ification of the .moun. of

HCN from hydrogenation of surface CN difficult in our expe:i-

ments. The substitution of D2 for H 2 n the coadsorption di4 no:

resolve this issue since DCN (mass 23) desor' bs at the same te_-

perature as CO (mass 29' which is present in small a-7onts fm-,

the Pt(lll) surface apoears zo be much smaller than the amzun:

observed by Lambert, et. a!. from the Pt!!', s~rface. The order

in which the H2 and CN were adsorbed on the surface mad no

effect on the generation of the 430 K state. in either order no

dismlacemen,: of the initial adsorbate was -detected in the rass

spectrometer during the exposure of the second component.

3.3 Ethylenediamine and Ethylene-d4-d amineA.

In order to investigate whether the new nea t S

spectrum of the cyanogen coadsorbed with H2 was possibly due to ahydrogenated cyanogen surface species, the cemis-r- of

diamine (NH2 -CH2-CH2-NH2) was also studied cn this sur-ce. .-he

onl.v products seen in theC -orm' desornt nsf "wig e: :zzs-res

at 290 K were H2 , HCN, and C2 N2 (see Fi:. 5).

The broad but well-defined nature of the :i, resortin=-s:e-

t:3 suggests the existence of two overia0oi_, 1 eaks pcss-:,}"

comin from the secuential dehvdrcaenation -z the am n-.

methylene groups. To resolve this question the e-yenjine

experiments were repeated using the se'ectivelv deutera-ed ethv-ene-d 4 -diamine (NH2 -CD The therma desor o .

for the H2, HD and D are shown in Fig. 6a. it can cdearlv be

rises for exposures greater than 1.0 L precludes the assignm~e:~t

of this peak to simple secon~d order kinetics.

Based on T for the a peak of cyanogen desorpt-ion reportedmax4_j

in the literature combined with this work, the order Ofr activity

of Pt surfaces is given by:

Pt(111) < Pt(l00), Pt(stepPed) < Pt(l1O)

This same order correlates well with the relative areas under th'-e
