Abstract
⺠C2H6O2 and CH4O2 form CO2 and H2O via similar elementary steps on Pt clusters. ⺠Elementary steps and rate equations depend on oxygen (O*) coverages. ⺠O* coverages are set by kinetic coupling between CH and OO activation steps. ⺠Rates reflect CH strength in alkanes and alkylO* interactions at transition states. ⺠Strongly bound O* at low-coordination surfaces are less reactive in CH activation.
