Direct evidence for the intermediacy of adsorbed alkyl species in the isomerization of neopentane on platinum

Abstract

The reaction of deuterium and neopentane catalysed by a sintered platinum film has been shown to yield appreciable amounts of monodeuteriated isopentane; this result strongly supports a mechanism involving an adsorbed alkyl species as the intermediate in the isomerization of small hydrocarbons.
