What happened in isomerization of n-Hexane in peresence of H2 by a bi-functional catalysis (assumed the metal site is platinum) in orbital and molecular scale?
Please see the PDF below.
The presence of hydrogen would only make sense here if the n-hexane or its isomers decompose to lower saturated hydrocarbons. Regards
In this case of reaction, using a bifuntional (metal/acid-support) catalysis, hydrogenation-isomerization reaction is carried out on metallic sites (platinum), and a posible cracking of n-hexane can be performed on the acid sites provided by the catalytic support. As a result, some molecules with equal molecular weight (isomers such as 2-methylpentane, 3-methylpentane, etc.) and gas conataining methane, ethane and propane could be yielded from cracking.
Best regards.

So as I wrote - isomerization combined with hydrocracking. And a bifunctional catalyst is required for this. Regards,
thank you from both.
But I really know what you say I want to understand the mechanism of electron changing and bonding performance.
