"By carrying out density functional theory calculations, we studied the CO oxidation promoted by cationic, neutral, and anionic Au trimers, which represent the prototypes of Au-cluster-based catalysts with different charge states. The reaction is explored along three possible pathways: one involves the reaction of the initial complexes between Au trimers and O-2 with CO; another is related to O-2 interacting with the complexes between ALL trimers and CO; and the third refers to a self-promoting mechanism; that is, the second CO oxidation is promoted by a preadsorbed CO molecule," investigators in Jinan, People's Republic of China report.
"The theoretical results ...
