Abstract

• Density functional molecular cluster calculations have been used to investigate the coordination of CO to Lewis acid sites (L-s(a)) available on Ti2O3 (1 0 (1) over bar 2) and V2O3(1 0 (1) over bar 2) non-polar surfaces. The electronic structure of the clean subs strates, the adsorbate geometry and chemisorption enthalpies are computed and discussed. Properties of the clean surfaces are well described by the chosen cluster models. Moreover, the L-s(a)-CO bonding is found to be very similar to that holding for transition metal carbonyls: i.e., a two-way electron flow implying a sigma donation from the CO 5sigma HOMO into empty L-s(a) AOs, assisted by a pi backdonation from L-s(a) occupied orbitals into the CO 2pi LUMO. Both the electronic and molecular structure of the adsorbate are significantly perturbed upon chemisorption and, consistently with experimental data, the C-O bond results strongly weakened. The chemisorption enthalpy of CO on V2O3(1 0 (1) over bar 2) (similar to-30 kcal/mol) is about twice that computed for CO on Ti2O3 (1 0 (1) over bar 2) (similar to-16 kcal/mol). (literal)
