Abstract

The thermal and UV photo-induced decomposition of azomethane, CH3NNCH3, was investigated by means of reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS) and temperature-programmed desorption spectroscopy (TPD). The RAIRS data revealed that azomethane adsorbs in the trans-configuration mode on Rh(111) at 90 K. During thermal treatment, azomethane decomposes exclusively by N–N bond scission, yielding H2, N2, C2N2 and traces of HCN. Upon UV irradiation at 90 K, adsorbed azomethane undergoes tautomerization, forming formaldehyde methylhydrazone, CH3NHNCH2. The important features of the post-irradiation TPD spectra are the significant suppression of C2N2 and N2 formation, and the appearance of the new products methylamine (CH3NH2) and CH4. C–N bond scission also occurred in the illuminated chemisorbed layer at 90 K.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
