The heat of adsorption and sticking probability of cyclohexene on Pt(111) were measured as a function of coverage using single-crystal adsorption calorimetry in the temperature range from 100 to 300 K. At 100 K, cyclohexene adsorbs as intact di-sigma bonded cyclohexene on Pt(l 11), and the heat of adsorption is well described by a second-order polynomial (1130 - 47 theta - 1250 theta(2)) kJ/mol, yielding a standard enthalpy of formation of di-sigma bonded cyclohexene on Pt(111) at low coverages of -135 kJ/mol and a C-Pt sigma bond strength of 205 kJ/mol. At 281 K, cyclohexene dehydrogenates upon adsorption, forming adsorbed 2-cyclohexenyl (c-C6H9,a) and adsorbed hydrogen, and the heat of adsorption is well described by another second-order polynomial (174 - 700 theta + 761 theta(2)) kJ/mol. This yields a standard enthalpy of formation of adsorbed 2-cyclohexenyl on Pt(111) at a low coverage of -143 kJ/mol. At coverages below 0.10 ML, the sticking probability of cyclohexene on Pt(111) is close to unity (> 0.95), independent of temperature.
