Abstract

AbstractMethyl radicals react with platinum nanoparticles (NPs) suspended in aqueous solutions to form (Pt0‐NPs)‐(CH3)n as a stable major product. Hydrogen gas treatment of the Pt0‐NPs affects the composition of the products and the surface reactions. The results clearly point out that pretreatment of Pt0‐NPs and (Pt0‐NPs)‐(CH3)n with H2 considerably affects their reactions with methyl radicals. The implications of the results on catalytic processes are discussed.
