Résumé : | Monodisperse Fe(0) nanoparticles with diameters between 1.8 and 9.0 nm were prepared from organometallic {Fe[N(SiMe3)2]2}2 and intercalated into mesoporous MCF-17 silica. We observed high turnover frequencies of the catalytic CO hydrogenation; they increased with Fe particle size. Methane and short-chain olefin selectivities were highest for small particles, while the opposite trend applied to long-chain terminal olefins and oxygenates. The Anderson-Schulz-Flory chain lengthening probabilities were found to increase with Fe particle size for both paraffins and terminal olefins. Reaction-induced sintering of the metal particles was limited and could be explained by the transformation of Fe(0) precursors into (mainly) Fe-carbides. The results cast new light on the structure sensitivity of the catalytic CO hydrogenation. |
