Abstract

The catalytic reaction of H₂+O₂ over a Au/TiO ₂ catalyst was studied by transmission IR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. A reaction path of O₂-assisted H₂ dissociation at the Au/TiO₂ dual perimeter site was found to proceed through a Ti-OOH intermediate (see scheme). The calculated barrier range (0.13-0.25 eV) for the sequence of low-energy steps agree with the experimental E_a of 0.22 eV.
