title: Adsorption of triethylenediamine on Al2O3-III: Bonding to Lewis acid Al3+ sites.
abstract: The adsorption of triethylenediamine (TEDA) on Lewis acid (Al(3+)) sites of the highly dehydroxylated Al(2)O(3) surface has been observed by FT-IR spectroscopy. This was done by monitoring the competitive adsorption of TEDA and CO on the Al(3+) sites. A stoichiometric replacement of Al(3+)-CO species was observed as Al(3+)-TEDA surface species were formed.
