Abstract
The adsorption of cyclopentane, cyclopentene and cyclopentadienyl on P t(111) has been studied using a semiempirical molecular orbital method . Results show an increasing molecule-surface interaction according to the ring insaturation. Cyclopentadienyl undergoes an extended rehybri dization, with frequency vibrations similar to those of metallocenes. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
