Abstract
Fluorine substituent effects have been used to probe the nature of the transition states for the several elementary reaction steps occurring on metal surfaces. The reactions described include β-hydrogen elimination in adsorbed alkoxide and alkyl groups, coupling of alkyl groups, and dehalogenation of alkyl chloride and iodides. The substituent effect method can provide a connection between heterogeneous catalysis, surface science, and computational molecular simulation of surface reactions.
