Molecular Ingredients of Heterogeneous Catalysis

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to present a review and status report of the rapidly developing surface science of heterogeneous catalysis. We describe the experimental results that identified three molecular ingredients of catalysis: (i) structure (ii) carbonaceous deposit, and (iii) the oxidation state of surface atoms. The hydrogenation of ethylene at both the gas‐solid and liquid‐solid interfaces is described.
