Abstract
Potential energy surfaces of the NH 2 + NO and NH 2 + O 2 reactions were contrasted in parallel using density functional theory to determine origins of this remarkable selectivity. The key feature distinguishing the two reactions was the much stronger adduct formed between NH 2 and NO than with O 2. The origin of such discrimination in thermal deNO x, which provide useful insights into the mechanistic attributes of an effective heterogeneous NO x SCR system, was explained with the electronic structures of the two adducts. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 227th ACS National Meeting (Anaheim, CA 3/28/2004-4/1/2004).
