Infrared study of nitrogen monoxide adsorption on palladium ion-exchanged ZSM-5 catalysts

Abstract

SSCI-VIDE+ATARI:CARE+CDS:PGEInternational audienceThe adsorption of NO at room temperature on a H-ZSM-5 catalyst exchanged with Pd(NH3)(4)(2+) complex and activated in oxygen at 773 K has been examined by FTIR spectroscopy. After the oxidizing treatment, the Pd tetrammine complex decomposed into Pd(II) ions and/or Pd(II) hydroxyl complexes dispersed in the zeolite channels. The subsequent adsorption of NO at room temperature led to the reduction of Pd(II) to Pd(I) entities, resulting in the formation and adsorption of NO2 on H-ZSM-5. The Pd(I) entities were shown to adsorb NO and form mononitrosyl complexes dispersed in the zeolite porosity and characterized by a single infrared absorption band at 1881 cm(-1). The Pd(I) mononitrosyl complex was shown to reversibly coordinate water and NO2 molecules. The resulting nitrosyl complex was characterized by a single NO vibration band at 1836 cm(-1)
