    Single Layer Res2h2: Stability, Raman Activity and Electronic Properties

    In this study, the structural, vibrational and electronic properties of the hydrogenated single layer of ReS2 are investigated byperforming the first principle calculations based on density functional theory. We found that the characteristic properties ofthe monolayer ReS2 can be manipulated upon the hydrogen functionalization. As the monolayer ReS2, the ReS2H2 hasdistorted 1T phase; however, the bonding in Re slab significantly varies with the hydrogenation. Our results demonstrate thatthe full-surface hydrogenation leads to an expansion in lattice and the Re4 tetramer-chains in the monolayer ReS2 areseparated into two dimers in the hydrogenated monolayer. It is calculated that the dynamically stable monolayer of ReS2H2has 26 Raman-active vibrational modes. Constant volume specific heat calculations are also performed and the resultsindicate that at high temperature, the monolayer ReS2 approaches to limit of 3R before the monolayer ReS2H2. By performingthe electronic band structure calculations, it is shown that when the ReS2 surface is fully hydrogenated, there occurs a directto indirect band gap transition and the semiconducting hydrogen-induced monolayer has a band gap of 0.74 eV.

    Hydrogenation of Citral Over Ni and Ni-Sn Catalysts
    (TUBITAK, 2008) Aykaç, Hilal; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Yılmaz, Selahattin; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Liquid phase citral hydrogenation over zeolite-supported monometallic Ni and bimetallic Ni-Sn catalysts was studied. The zeolite support materials were Na-Y, Na-mordenite, and clinoptilolite. Ni and Sn contents of the monometallic and bimetallic catalysts were 8.1-9.2 wt% and 0.46 wt%, respectively. The type of the zeolite support affected the activity and selectivity of the catalysts differently. The main product of the citral hydrogenation reaction was citronellal, for both monometallic (84.5% yield) and bimetallic (44.5% yield) catalysts. The addition of promoter increased the selectivity to unsaturated alcohols (geraniol+nerol), i.e. it changed from 0.9% to 6.3% over mordenite and from 0.9% to 2.1% over Na-Y-supported catalysts. Furthermore, activity of the Ni catalysts decreased while the quantity of acetal remained almost constant. Intimate contact between active metal, promoter, and support, and a catalyst with a high concentration of weak acid sites gave high selectivity to geraniol+nerol.

    Hydrogenation of Citral Over Pt and Pt-Sn Catalysts
    (TUBITAK, 2008) Aykaç, Hilal; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Yılmaz, Selahattin; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Hydrogenation of citral on monometallic (Pt) and bimetallic (Pt-Sn) catalysts was investigated. It was found that the catalyst activities and product distributions were different over Na-Y and Clino supports. Among monometallic catalysts, Pt/Na-Y was more selective to citronellol (3.9%) and unsaturated alcohols, geraniol and nerol, (14.1%). Sn addition increased the catalyst activities. However, its effect on product distribution differed. Yield of geraniol+nerol changed from 5.1% to 19.7% over Clino. However, selectivity to unsaturated alcohols over Na-Y decreased when it was prepared as a bimetallic catalyst support. Unsaturated alcohol formation was favored when there was a metal support interaction over monometallic catalysts, and metal-promoter interaction over bimetallic catalyst.
