摘要
Adsorption of imidazole on clean Fe(100) was addressed by DFT calculations. It is shown that even though the imidazole in protonated form binds stronger to the surface than the neutral form, it is prone to deprotonation (dehydrogenation) resulting in neutral form, which further dehydrogenates due to the breaking of the C2-H bond. Thermodynamically the stablest identified structures thus consist of strongly bound and densely packed C2 dehydrogenated imidazole molecules, which may act as a thin protective film. On the other hand, the polymerization of imidazole molecules upon adsorption has been found improbable. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
