Abstract
Dealuminated zeolite HY was used to support Ir(CO)2 complexes formed from Ir(CO)2(C5H7O2). Infrared and X-ray absorption spectra and atomic resolution electron microscopy images identify these complexes, and the images and 27Al NMR spectra identify impurity amorphous regions in the zeolite where the iridium is more susceptible to aggregation than in the crystalline regions. The results indicate the value of electron microscopy in characterizing the amorphous impurity regions of zeolites and a significant stability limitation of metals in these regions of zeolite catalyst supports.
