Liquid-phase Cu(acac)2/ZnEt2 syngas conversion catalysts: investigations by copper and zinc K-edge EXAFS

Abstract
Cu K-edge EXAFS studies on syngas conversion catalysts, generated by the reaction of Cu(acac)2(acac = acetylacetonato) with ZnEt2 at room temp., reveal the presence small Cu metal particles (ca. 10–25 Å) in solution; Zn K-edge studies suggest the formation of oligomeric Zn species with oxygen present in the first coordination sphere.
