Electron-acceptor Centers of Alkali Metal Modified Alumina Studied by the Anthraquinone as a Probe Molecule
Abstract
Anthraquinone paramagnetic complexes have been used to study electron-acceptor centers on the surface of alumina modified with alkali metal ions (Li+, Na+, K+). Complexes have been characterized by CW EPR, ENDOR and pulse EPR (HYSCORE) techniques. It has been shown that alkali metal ions decreased the strength of electron-acceptor centers due to the inductive effect. As a result the concentration of anthraquinone complex with two Lewis acid sites (LAS) decreased, but the concentration of complex with one LAS increased with the increasing of alkali metal content. At large alkali metal concentration other kinds of anthraquinone paramagnetic complexes are formed, that are anthrasemiquinone weakly bound with LAS as well as anthrasemiquinone ion pair with alkali metal cation (lithium).
