Abstract: | Pulsed field desorption mass spectrometry shows that decomposition of methanol on Rh and Ni occurs via step-wise hydrogen abstraction from an adsorbed methoxy. Contrary to previous suggestions, an alternative mechanism through adsorbed methyl was not observed on Ni for pressures up to 3×10–3 Pa and temperatures up to the desorption of CO. |
