Abstrakt: Spectroscopic methods enabling real-time monitoring of dynamic surface processes are a prerequisite for identifying how a catalyst triggers a chemical reaction. We present an in situ photoluminescence spectroscopy approach for probing the thermocatalytic 2-propanol oxidation over mesostructured Co 3 O 4 nanowires. Under oxidative conditions, a distinct blue emission at ∼420 nm is detected that increases with temperature up to 280 °C, with an intermediate maximum at 150 °C. Catalytic data gained under comparable conditions show that this course of photoluminescence intensity precisely follows the conversion of 2-propanol and the production of acetone. The blue emission is assigned to the radiative recombination of unbound acetone molecules, the n ↔ π* transition of which is selectively excited by a wavelength of 270 nm. These findings open a pathway for studying thermocatalytic processes via in situ photoluminescence spectroscopy, thereby gaining information about the performance of the catalyst and the formation of intermediate products.
