Theoretical study on the mechanism of the (3)CH(2) + NO(2) reaction

The complex doublet potential energy surface of the CH(2)NO(2) system is investigated at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) and QCISD(T)/6-311G(d,p) (single-point) levels to explore the possible reaction mechanism of the triplet CH(2) radical with NO(2). Forty minimum isomers and 92 transition states are located. For the most relevant reaction pathways, the high-level QCISD(T)/6-311 + G(2df,2p) calculations are performed at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) geometries to accurately determine the energetics. It is found that the top attack of the (3)CH(2) radical at the N-atom of NO(2) first forms the branched open-chain H(2)CNO(2) a with no barrier followed by ring closure to give the three-membered ring isomer cC(H(2))ON-O b that will almost barrierlessly dissociate to product P(1) H(2)CO + NO. The lesser followed competitive channel is the 1,3-H-shift of a to isomer HCN(O)OH c, which will take subsequent cis-trans conversion and dissociation to P(2) OH + HCNO. The direct O-extrusion of a to product P(3) (3)O + H(2)CNO is even much less feasible. Because the intermediates and transition states involved in the above three channels are all lower than the reactants in energy, the title reaction is expected to be rapid, as is consistent with the measured large rate constant at room temperature. Formation of the other very low-lying dissociation products such as NH(2) + CO(2), OH + HNCO and H(2)O + NCO seems unlikely due to kinetic hindrance. Moreover, the (3)CH(2) attack at the end-O of NO(2) is a barrier-consumed process, and thus may only be of significance at very high temperatures. The reaction of the singlet CH(2) with NO(2) is also briefly discussed. Our calculated results may assist in future laboratory identification of the products of the title reaction.     

Theoretical study of the reaction mechanism of HCN+ and CH4 of relevance to Titan's ion chemistry

Titan is the largest satellite of Saturn. In its atmosphere, CH4 is the most abundant neutral after nitrogen. In this paper, the complex doublet potential-energy surface related to the reaction between HCN+ and CH4 is investigated at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p), CCSD(T)/6-311G++(3df,2pd)(single-point), and QCISD/6-311G(d,p) computational levels. A total of seven products are located on the PES. The initial association of HCN+ with CH4 is found to be a prereaction complex 1 (HCNHCH3(+)) without barrier. Starting from 1, the most feasible pathway is the direct H-abstraction process (the internal C-H bond dissociation) leading to the product P1 (HCNH++CH3). By C-C addition, prereaction complex 1 can form intermediate 2 (HNCHCH3(+)) and then lead to the product P2 (CH3CNH++H). The rate-controlling step of this process is only 25.6 kcal/mol. It makes the Path P2 (1) R --> 1 --> TS1/2 --> 2 --> TS2/P2 --> P2 another possible way for the reaction. P3 (HCNCH3(+) + H), P5 (cNCHCH2(+) + H2), and P6 (NCCH3(+) + H2) are exothermic products, but they have higher barriers (more than 40.0 kcal/mol); P4 (H + HCN + CH3(+)) and P7 (H + H2 + HCCNH+) are endothermic products. They should be discovered under different experimental or interstellar conditions. The present study may be helpful for investigating the analogous ion-molecule reaction in Titan's atmosphere.     

Theoretical study on the mechanism of the NCO + HCNO reaction

The complex doublet potential surface of the NCO + HCNO reaction has been investigated at the QCISD(T)/6-311g(d,p)//UB3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level. We have found 29 isomers on the potential surface, which are connected by 38 transition states. The single-point energy calculations are performed at the high-level QCISD(T)/6-311G(d,p) for more accurate energy values. In various possible initial association ways, the end-N attack leading to HC2N2O2 a1 and a2 is the most favorable association way through a barrierless process. Through the thermodynamic and kinetic analyses, the product NO + CO + HCN should be the major product in both the low- and high-temperature conditions for its low-energy determination transition state. Our calculation is consistent with the available data in low-temperature condition and expected to be confirmed in the high-temperature condition.     

Theoretical study of HCN(+) + C2H2 reaction

A detailed theoretical investigation for the ion-molecule reaction of HCN (+) with C 2H 2 is performed at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) and CCSD(T)/6-311++G(3df,2pd) (single-point) levels. Possible energetically allowed reaction pathways leading to various low-lying dissociation products are probed. It is shown that eight dissociation products P 1 (H 2C 3N (+)+H), P 2 (CN+C 2H 3 (+)), P 3 (HC 3N (+)+H 2), P 4 (HCCCNH (+)+H), P 5 (H 2NCCC (+)+H), P 6 (HCNCCH (+)+H), P 7 (C 2H 2 (+)+HCN), and P 8 (C 2H 2 (+)+HNC) are both thermodynamically and kinetically accessible. Among the eight dissociation products, P 1 is the most abundant product. P 7 and P 3 are the second and third feasible products but much less competitive than P 1 , followed by the almost negligible product P 2 . Other products, P 4 (HCCCNH (+)+H), P 5 (HCNCCH (+)+H), P 6 (H 2NCCC (+)+H), and P 8 (C 2H 2 (+)+HNC) may become feasible at high temperatures. Because the intermediates and transition states involved in the reaction HCN (+) + C 2H 2 are all lower than the reactant in energy, the title reaction is expected to be rapid, as is consistent with the measured large rate constant at room temperature. The present calculation results may provide a useful guide for understanding the mechanism of HCN (+) toward other pi-bonded molecules.     

A density functional investigation of the reaction mechanism of H2O + HCNO

A theoretical investigation of the H₂O + HCNO reaction, which is carried out by means of CCSD(T)/6‐311G(d,p)//B3LYP/6‐311G(d,p)+ZPVE computational method to determine a set of reasonable pathways, there are seven product pathways, P _i with i = 1 , 2 , …, 7 are involved. It is shown that P ₁ (H₂O + NCOH), P ₂ (CO + NH₂ + OH), P ₄ (HCN + HO₂ + H), and P ₆ (CO + NH₂OH) are the major product channels; and P ₇ (HOC + H₂ + NO) is the minor product channels, whereas the other channels for P ₃ (HNO + HCOH) and P ₅ (HNO + H₂CO) are very minor, the minor product channels. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Theoretical study on reaction mechanism of the fluoromethylene radical with nitrogen dioxide

The complex doublet potential energy surface for the reaction of 1CHF with NO2, including 14 minimum isomers and 30 transition states, is explored theoretically at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) and CCSD(T)/6-311G(d,p) (single-point) levels of theory. The initial association between 1CHF and NO2 is found to be the carbon-to-middle-nitrogen attack forming an energy-rich adduct a (HFCNO2) with no barrier, followed by concerted O-shift and C--N bond rupture leading to product P2 (NO + HFCO), which is the most abundant. In addition, a can take a 1,3-H-shift to isomer b (FCN(O)OH) followed by the dissociation to form the second feasible product P4 (OH + FCNO). The least favorable pathway is that b undergoes a concerted OH-shift to form d (HO(F)CNO), which will dissociate to product P5 (HF+OCNO) via side HF-elimination. The secondary dissociation of P5 may form product P7 (HF+NO+CO) easily. Furthermore, the 1CHF attack at the end-O of NO2 is a barrier-consumed process, and thus may only be of significance at high temperatures. The comparison with the analogous reactions 1CHCl + NO2 is discussed. The present study may be helpful for probing the mechanism of the title reaction and understanding the halogenated carbine chemistry.
