At QCISD/6-311G(d) level, one four-membered ring isomer cSiPCP and two linear structures PSiCP, SiCPP possess considerable kinetic stability (more than 15 kcal/mol). The valence bond structures of three kinetically stable SiCP₂ isomers are analyzed. The similarities and discrepancies in structure, energy and stability between SiCP₂ and its analogous C₂P₂, Si₂P₂, SiCN₂ and CSiNP molecules are also discussed. The predicted structures and spectroscopic properties are expected to be informative for the identification of the SiCP₂ in the laboratory and space.     

Theoretical study on structures and stability of triplet SiC<Subscript>3</Subscript>O isomers

Various levels of calculations are carried out~for exploring the potential energy surface (PES) of triplet SiC₃O, a molecule of potential interest in interstellar chemistry. A total of 38 isomers are located on the PES including chain-like, cyclic and cage-like structures, which are connected by 87 interconversion transition states at the DFT/B3LYP/6-311G(d) level. The structures of the most relevant isomers and transition states are further optimized at the QCISD/6-311G(d) level followed by CCSD(T)/6-311+G(2df) single-point energy calculations. At the QCISD level, the lowest lying isomer is a linear SiCCCO 1 (0.0 kcal/mol) with the ³ ∑ electronic state, which possesses great kinetic stability of 59.5 kcal/mol and predominant resonant structure . In addition, the bent isomers CSiCCO 2 (68.3 kcal/mol) and OSiCCC 5 (60.1 kcal/mol) with considerable kinetic stability are also predicted to be candidates for future experimental and astrophysical detection. The bond natures and possible formation pathways in interstellar space of the three stable isomers are discussed. The predicted structures and spectroscopic properties for the relevant isomers are expected to be informative for the identification of SiC₃O and even larger SiC _n O species in laboratory and interstellar medium.

Theoretical study on the [Si, C, N, O] potential energy surface

The structures, energetics, spectroscopies, and stabilities of the doublet [Si, C, N, O] radical are explored at the density functional theory and ab initio levels. Sixteen isomers are located, connected by 29 interconversion transition states. At the CCSD(T)/6-311+G(2df)//QCISD/6-311G(d)+ZPVE level, the lowest lying isomer is a linear SiNCO 1 (0.0 kcal/mol) mainly featuring a cumulene | . Si = N = C = O. The second and third low-lying isomers are bent OSiCN 2 (8.8) and bent OSiNC 3 (11.1), respectively. All the three low-lying isomers 1, 2, 3, and another high-lying species 5 (75.4) with a linear SiCNO structure are shown to have considerable kinetic stability and may be experimentally observable. The predicted results of isomers 1 and 2 are consistent with the previous mass spectrometry experiments. Moreover, the fourth low-lying species SiOCN 4 (23.9) with bent structure is expected to be observable in low-temperature environments. The bonding nature of the five isomers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 is analyzed. The calculated results are compared with those of the analogous molecules C(2)NO and Si(2)NO. Implications in interstellar space and N,O-doped SiC vaporization processes are also discussed.     

Structure and Stability of Isomers of the Promising Interstellar Molecule PC3O

DFT/B3LYP/6-311G(d) and CCSD(T)/6-311G(2d) single-point calculations are carried out for exploring the doublet potential energy surface (PES) of PC₃O, a molecule of potential interest in interstellar chemistry. A total of 29 minima connected by 65 interconversion transition states are located. The structures of the most relevant isomers and transition states are further optimized at the QCISD level followed by CCSD(T) single-point energy calculations. At the CCSD(T)/6-311G(2df)//QCISD/6-311G(d)+ZPVE level, the global minimum is the quasi-linear structure PCCCO 1 (0.0 kcal/mol) with a great kinetic stability of 47.9 kcal/mol, and the cumulenic form features largely in its resonance structures. Moreover, the chainlike isomer OPCCC 3 (64.5) and five-membered-ring species cPCCCO 19 (77.8) possess considerable kinetic stability of about 18.0 kcal/mol. All these three isomers are very promising candidates for future experimental and astrophysical detection. Additionally, a three-membered-ring isomer CC-cCOP 10 (69.6) has slightly lower kinetic stability of around 15 kcal/mol and may also be experimentally observable. Possible formation mechanisms of the four stable isomers in interstellar space are discussed. The present research is the first attempt to study the isomerization and dissociation mechanisms of PC _n O series. The predicted spectroscopic properties, including harmonic vibrational frequencies, dipole moments and rotational constants for the relevant isomers, are expected to be informative for the identification of PC₃O in laboratory and interstellar medium.     

Theoretical study on stability and properties of NC2O isomers

The structures, energetics, spectroscopies, and stabilities of the doublet NC(2)O radical are explored at density functional theory and ab initio levels. Nine minimum isomers are located connected by 22 interconversion transition states. At the CCSD(T)/6-311+G(2df)//QCISD/6-311G(d)+ZPVE level, the lowest-lying isomer is bent NCCO 1 (0.0 kcal/mol) with (2)A' state followed by bent isomer CNCO 2 (16.7). Two isomers (1 and 2) and another high-lying species CCNO 4 (99.4) with bent structure are considerably stabilized by a barrier of at least 20 kcal/mol. All of the three isomers should be experimentally or astrophysically observable. This result is consistent with their indication of neutralization-reionization mass spectrometry experiments. Also, the calculated spectroscopic properties and bond distances of known NCCO 1 are consistent with recent experimental observations and theoretical studies. The bonding natures of the isomers 1, 2, and 4 are analyzed. Their molecular properties including the heats of formation, adiabatic ionization potentials, and adiabatic electronic affinities are calculated at the higher levels G3//B3LYP, G3(MP2)//B3LYP, QCISD, and CCSD(T) (single-point). Possible formation strategies of the isomers 1, 2, and 4 in laboratory and space are also discussed in detail.
