Methanol synthesis mechanism over zirconium dioxide

Description

The source and role of oxygen in the formation of carbonates, formate, methoxide, and methanol were studied over zirconia via infrared spectroscopy and /sup 18/O-labeled reactants. The studies are consistent with a formate-to-methoxide mechanism for methanol synthesis and suggest the nature of the active sites involved
