Acetone is often present in chemical reactions during the formation of hybrid interfaces, and thus is a potential competitor to coupling agents like carboxylic acids. Moreover, acetone can be oxidized via photo-catalysis at TiO₂ surfaces. Here, we studied the adsorption geometry, energetics and vibrational modes of acetone molecules on the TiO₂ rutile (110) surface with density functional theory (DFT) and IR spectroscopy. Studying a large number of possible adsorption geometries in DFT calculations, we found that even at high coverage the adsorbed acetone is able to change its configuration by thermal activation. IR spectra were recorded while dosing acetone on rutile powder particles at low temperature and agree very well with the calculated IR spectra. Increasing the temperature resulted in a reaction of the adsorbed acetone. The nature of this reaction is examined using DFT.
