Popis: Temperature-programmed reaction spectroscopic studies reveal two main transformation routes of methanol adsorbed on commercial Cu-containing catalysts. First the reverse methanol synthesis reaction (hydrolysis) CH3OH+H2O=CO3+3H2; a second route is not connected with CH3OH synthesis and it includes bimolecular interaction of methanol giving methyl formate. The conversion of the latter compound results in the formation of CO, and other intermediates often postulated in methanol synthesis.
