摘要

Reagents from a base catalysed condensation reaction (Knoevenagel condensation reaction between ethyl cyanoacetate and benzaldehyde), were adsorbed on ZnO and Al-2 O-3 catalyst surfaces and subject to temperature programmed desorption experiments, monitored using mass spectrometry. Ethyl formate, ketenimine species, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide were desorption products from ethyl cyanoacetate, while benzene, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide were desorbed from the catalysts loaded with benzaldehyde. The formation of the ketenimine species was confirmed by in situ FTIR experiments. The observation of the decomposition species further substantiates a proposed reaction mechanism for the Knoevenagel condensation reaction on the catalyst surface of some oxide catalysts.
