The selectivity of alkyl halides, temperature and size distributions were investigated to elucidate the redispersion of Au NPs during halide-induced decomposition. This study proved that the alkyl halide induced the redispersion of sintered Au NPs which depended on the R-X (X = I, Br, CI) bond dissociation energy (BDE) and thus provided a simple descriptor for the regeneration of inactive supported Au cata- lysts. A correlation between the BDE of R-X and dispersion efficiency was established. The tendency for disintegration and redispersion followed the R-X BDE of the alkyl halide. Compared to alkyl chlorides and bromides, iodides were more efficient for redispersing sintered Au NPs. As a descriptor, the BDE of R-I played a crucial role in particle redispersion. These findings provided in- sights into the mechanism of organic halide-induced Au NP disintegration and the effect of the hal- ide type on the redispersion of sintered catalysts.展开更多
