The chemical nature of Z-3-hexene/Ru(0001) bond at different temperatures was studied by reflection-absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS). At 92 K and for low exposures (0.05 L) the results indicate that Z-3-hexene adsorbs non-dissociatively as a di-sigma complex. By annealing to 123 K, it dehydrogenates at the C-alpha carbons (C-3 and C-4, bonded to the surface), forming a hexyne di-sigma/pi complex in a mixture of rotational conformers. Upon thermal activation, this complex decomposes by breaking the C-alpha-C-beta (i.e., C-2-C-3 and C-4-C-5) bonds, yielding adsorbed ethylidyne. At 223 K, only this species and residual di-sigma/pi complex are present on the surface. A different decomposition path is proposed upon direct adsorption of Z-3-hexene at 223 K, since propylidyne appears to be formed on the surface, which implies breaking the C-C double bond with dehydrogenation. Since the behaviour of Z-3-hexene is identical to that of 3-hexyne, and rather different from 1-hexene, these results suggest that the decomposition of unsaturated hydrocarbons on clean Ru(0001) is determined by the position and not by the nature (double or triple bond) of the functionality.
