Abstract
The adsorption of methanol, (D-4) methanol and formaldehyde on rhodium containing catalysts is studied by FTIR. Besides the well characteriz ed methoxy and formate species, new bands could be observed on the CeO 2 and Pr6O11 supported catalysts. Comparison with results obtained by chemical trapping enables us to identify the new species as a stabiliz ed formyl. The mechanism of methanol dissociation is discussed.
