Adsorption and Thermal Evolution of the Carbonyl-functionalized Ionic Liquid [5-oxo-C₆C₁Im][NTf₂] on Pt(111): A Combined IRAS, STM, and DFT Study.

ABSTRACT: The coating of heterogeneous catalysts with ionic liquids enables precise tuning of catalytic activity and selectivity. Recently, the fundamentals of solid catalysts with ionic liquid layers have been extensively studied. So far, investigations have focused on simple ILs without specialized functional groups. In our current work, we aim to involve functionalized ILs to take advantage of the interactions between these functional groups, the catalyst, and the reactants. In this study, we investigated the interaction, and thermal stability of the carbonyl-functionalized IL [5-oxo-C₆C₁Im][NTf₂] on Pt(111) by infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy. In addition, we performed density functional theory calculations to support
