Substituent effects have been used to probe the characteristics of the transition state to hydrogenation of alkyl groups on the Pt(111) surface. Eight different alkyl and fluoroalkyl groups have been formed on the Pt(111) surface by dissociative adsorption of their respective alkyl and fluoroalkyl iodides. Coadsorption of hydrogen and alkyl groups, followed by heating of the surface, results in hydrogenation of the alkyl groups to form alkanes, which then desorb into the gas phase. Temperature-programmed reaction spectroscopy was used to measure the barriers to hydrogenation, DeltaE(H)(double dagger), which are dependent on the size of the alkyl group (polarizability) and the degree of fluorination (field effect). This example is one of only two surface reactions for which the influence of the substituents on DeltaE(H)(double dagger) has been correlated with both the field and the polarizability substituent constants of the alkyl groups in the form of a linear free energy relationship. Increasing both the field and the polarizability constants of the alkyl groups increases the value of DeltaE(H)(double dagger). The substituent effects are quantified by a field reaction constant of rho(F) = 27 +/- 4 kJ/mol and a polarizability reaction constant of rho(alpha) = 19 +/- 3 kJ/mol. These suggest that the transition state for hydrogenation is slightly cationic with respect to the alkyl group on the Pt(111) surface, RC + H <--> {RC(delta+)...H}(double dagger).
