✦ Synopsis
The (\mathrm{CO}) hydrogenation over cerium oxide was studied by using a closed circulating reaction system and in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) at 300-673 K. The major products of the (\mathrm{CO}-\mathrm{H}{2}) reaction over cerium oxide were found to be olefins (\left(\mathrm{C}{2}-\mathrm{C}{4}^{\prime}\right), \mathrm{CH}{4}, \mathrm{CO}{2}), and (\mathrm{H}{2} \mathrm{O}). IR bands due to surface oxygen-containing species such as formate, dioxymethylene. methoxy, and formyl were always detected during the (\mathrm{CO}-\mathrm{H}_{2}) reaction at (300-573 \mathrm{~K}) over cerium oxide. No direct relationship between the surface oxygen-containing species and the production of hydrocarbons were found. The mechanism of (\mathrm{CO}) hydrogenation on cerium oxide involving the surface redox was discussed. 1993 Academic Press. Inc.
