Theoretical study of the reaction of Sc with SCO in gas phase

In order to elucidate the mechanism of reaction M⁺ + SCO, both triplet and singlet potential energy surfaces (PESs) for the reaction of Sc⁺ + SCO have been theoretically investigated using the DFT (B3LYP/6-311+G*) level of theory. The geometries for reactants, intermediates, transition states and products were completely optimized. All the transition states were verified by the vibrational analysis and the intrinsic reaction coordinate calculations. The involving potential energy curve-crossing dramatically affects reaction mechanism, reaction rate has been discussed, and the crossing points (CPs) have been localized by the approach suggested by Yoshizawa et al. The present results show that the reaction mechanism are insertion–elimination mechanism both along the C–S and C–O bond activation branches, but the C–S bond activation is much more favorable in energy than the C–O bond activation. All theoretical results not only support the existing conclusions inferred from early experiment, but also complement the pathway and mechanism for this reaction.     

A density functional theory study on the reactions of Y atom and Y+ cation with carbonyl sulfide

The mechanism of the title reactions have been studied by using the DFT (B3LYP/ECP/6‐311+G*) level of theory. Both ground and excited state potential energy surfaces are discussed. It is found the reaction mechanism is insertion mechanism both along the C? S and C? O bond activation branches, but the C? S bond activation is much more favorable in energy than the C? O bond activation. The reaction of Y atom with SCO was shown to occur preferentially on the ground state (doublet) PES throughout the reaction process, and the experimentally observed species, have been explained according to the mechanism revealed in this work. Different from that of Y + SCO system, the reaction between Y⁺ cation and SCO involves potential energy curve‐crossing which dramatically affects reaction mechanism. Due to the intersystem crossing existing in the reaction process of Y⁺ with SCO, the intermediates SY⁺(η²CO) and OY⁺(η²CS) may not form. All our theoretical results not only support the existing conclusions inferred from early experiment, but also complement the pathway and mechanism for this reaction. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Theoretical study of the reaction of Cr+ with SCO in gas phase

To elucidate the mechanism of reaction M⁺ + SCO, the reaction of Cr⁺ + SCO has been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) with the popular hybrid functional, B3LYP, in conjunction with 6‐311+G* basis set on both the sextet and quartet potential energy surfaces (PESs). To obtain an accurate evaluation of the activation barrier and reaction energy, the coupled cluster single‐point calculations using the B3LYP structures is performed. The crossing points (CPs) of the different PESs have been localized with the approach suggested by Yoshizawa and colleagues. The involving potential energy curve‐crossing dramatically affects reaction mechanism. The present results show that the reaction mechanism is insertion‐elimination mechanism both along the C? S and C? O bond activation branches, but the C? S bond activation is much more favorable than the C? O bond activation in energy. All theoretical results not only support the existing conclusions inferred from early experiment study, but also complement the pathway and mechanism for this reaction. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Theoretical Study on the Mechanism of the Gas-phase Reaction of Sc＋ with Propargyl Alcohol

In order to elucidate the reaction mechanisms of reaction Sc^＋ with propargyl alcohol (PPA), the triplet potential energy surface for the reactions has been theoretically investigated using a DFT method. The geometries for the reactants, intermediates, transition states and products were completely optimized at B3LYP/DZVP level.

All the transition states were verified by the vibrational analysis and the internal reaction coordinate (IRC) calculations. The present results show that the reaction takes an insertion-elimination mechanism both along the O—H and C—O bond activation branches, but the C—O bond activation is much more favorable in energy than the O—H bond activation. All theoretical results not only support the existing conclusions inferred from early experiment, but also complement the pathway and mechanism for this reaction.     

Investigation on the Mechanism for C–N Coupling of 3‐Iodopyridine and Pyrazole Catalyzed by Cu(I)

The reaction mechanism for C–N coupling of 3‐iodopyridine and pyrazole catalyzed by Cu(I) was studied by the density functional theory. All of the reactants, intermediates, transition states, and products were optimized with the B3LYP method at 6–31+G(d) basis set. The single‐point energy and zero‐point energy correction were calculated for the optimized configuration of each compound with the sane method at 6–311++G(d,p) basis set. Transition states have been confirmed by the corresponding vibration analysis and intrinsic reactions coordinate. In addition, nature bond orbital and atoms in molecules (AIM) theories have been used to analyze orbital interactions and bond natures. The results showed that the activation energy of the rate‐determining step in the absence of catalysts was 250.63 kJ·mol^?1, which were 74.01 and 131.68 kJ·mol^?1 via Cu₂O and CuI catalyzed, respectively. Results indicated that catalyst Cu₂O promotes reaction effectively. All calculations were consistent with experiments.
