A microscopic lattice gas model for the $\mathrm{CO}+\mathrm{NO}$ reaction on Pt(100) is studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations. It shows different kinetical phenomena such as steady state reaction, damped, regular, and irregular oscillations, as well as a transition into chaotical behavior via the Feigenbaum route. Because of its small number of parameters, each with a specific physical meaning, it enables the investigation of the whole parameter regime leading to a deeper insight to the mechanisms which create the oscillations and chaotical behavior.
