Abstract
We report on the decomposition of platinum acetylacetonate (Pt(acac)(2)) in hydrogen induced by flash heating. The changes in the local Pt structure were followed by high energy resolution off-resonant spectroscopy uniquely performed with sub-second time resolution. The decomposition consists of a two-step reduction process of the Pt(II) species.
