In the past ten years the study of the mechanisms of chemical transformations on metal surfaces has advanced appreciably. Today complex reaction networks can be unraveled by combining several spectroscopies, derived principally from the practice of ultrahigh-vacuum surface physics. Of paramount importance in this field is the combination of mass spectrometric methods for the identification of reaction products with spectroscopies which help identify surface-bound reactive intermediates. This quasi-monograph highlights the progress in this field with studies which clearly exemplify such...
