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.     

Transition state structure and energetics of the N(2)O + X (X = Cl,Br) reactions

The structural and vibrational properties of the transition state of the N(2)O + X (X = Cl,Br) reactions have been characterized by ab initio methods using density functional theory. We have employed Becke's hybrid functional (B3LYP), and transition state optimizations were performed with 6-31G(d), 6-311G(2d,2p), 6-311+G(3d,2p), and 6-311+G(3df,2p) basis sets. For the chlorine atom reaction the coupled-cluster method (CCSD(T)) with 6-31G(d) basis set was also used. All calculations resulted in transition state structures with a planar cis arrangement of atoms for both reactions. The geometrical parameters of transition states at B3LYP are very similar, and the reaction coordinates involve mainly the breaking of the N-O bond. At CCSD(T)/6-31G(d) level a contribution of the O-Cl forming bond is also observed in the reaction coordinate. In addition, several highly accurate ab initio composite methods of Gaussian-n (G1, G2, G3), their variations (G2(MP2), G3//B3LYP), and complete basis set (CBS-Q, CBS-Q//B3LYP) series of models were applied to compute reaction energetics. All model chemistries predict exothermic reactions. The G3 and G2 methods result in the smallest deviations from experiment, 1.8 and 0 kcal mol(-1), for the enthalpies of reaction for N(2)O reaction with chlorine and bromine, respectively. The G3//B3LYP and G1 methods perform best among the composite methods in predicting energies of the transition state, with a deviation of 1.9 and 3.0 kcal mol(-1), respectively, in the activation energies for the above processes. However, the B3LYP/6-311+G(3df,2p) method gives smaller deviations of 0.4 and -1.0 kcal mol(-1), respectively. The performance of the methodologies applied in predicting transition state energies was analyzed.     

Theoretical studies on the mechanisms of NCCO + O2 reaction

The mechanisms of the reaction of NCCO with molecular oxygen are investigated at the G3MP2//B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) levels for the first time. The calculation results show that two mechanisms are involved, namely, O attack on α atom mechanism and O attack on β atom mechanism, with six products yielded. The most feasible channel is the addition of O₂ to β atom in NCCO radical leading to the energy-rich intermediate IM1, NCC(O)OO, which can isomerize to a four-center-structure IM3, and then undergoes C–C and O–C bond fission to form P1(NCO + CO₂) finally. The barriers are 27.3 and 25.4 kcal/mol, respectively. For other channels involved in the two mechanisms, with less stable initial adducts and higher barrier, they are less conceivable dynamically and thermochemically.     

Ab initio study on the oxidation of NCN by O (3P): prediction of the total rate constant and product branching ratios

The reaction of NCN with O is relevant to the formation of prompt NO according to the new mechanism, CH+N2-->cyclic-C(H)NN- -->HNCN-->H+NCN. The reaction has been investigated by ab initio molecular orbital and transition state theory calculations. The mechanisms for formation of possible product channels involved in the singlet and triplet potential energy surfaces have been predicted at the highest level of the modified GAUSSIAN-2 (G2M) method, G2M (CC1). The barrierless association/dissociation processes on the singlet surface were also examined with the third-order Rayleigh-Schr?dinger perturbation (CASPT3) and the multireference configuration interaction methods including Davidson's correction for higher excitations (MRCI+Q) at the CASPT3(6,6)/6-311+G(3df)//UB3LYP/6-311G(d) and MRCI+Q(6,6)/6-311+G(3df)//UB3LYP/6-311G(d) levels. The rate constants for the low-energy channels producing CO+N2, CN+NO, and N(4S)+NCO have been calculated in the temperature range of 200-3000 K. The results show that the formation of CN+NO is dominant and its branching ratio is over 99% in the whole temperature range; no pressure dependence was noted at pressures below 100 atm. The total rate constant can be expressed by: kt=4.23x10(-11) T0.15 exp(17/T) cm3 molecule(-1) s(-1).     

Mechanism of OH radical reactions with HCN and CH3CN: OH regeneration in the presence of O2

A theoretical study on the mechanism of the OH reactions with HCN and CH(3)CN, in the presence of O2, is presented. Optimum geometries and frequencies have been computed at BHandHLYP/6-311++G(2d,2p) level of theory for all stationary points. Energy values have been improved by single-point calculations at the above geometries using CCSD(T)/6-311++G(2d,2p). The initial attack of OH to HCN was found to lead only to the formation of the HC(OH)N adduct, while for CH(3)CN similar proportions of CH(2)CN and CH(3)C(OH)N are expected. A four-step mechanism has been proposed to explain the OH regeneration, experimentally observed for OH + CH(3)CN reaction, when carried out in the presence of O2. The mechanism steps are as follows: (1) OH addition to the C atom in the CN group, (2) O2 addition to the N atom, (3) an intramolecular H migration from OH to OO, and (4) OH elimination. This mechanism is in line with the one independently proposed by Wine et al. for HCN. The results obtained here suggest that for the OH + HCN reaction, the OH regeneration might occur even in larger extension than for OH + CH(3)CN reaction. The agreement between the calculated data and the available experimental evidence on the studied reactions seems to validate the mechanism proposed here.     

Theoretical Studies on N2H+O Reaction

The N2H＋O potential energy profile was studied at the CCSD（T）/6-311G＋＋（df,p）//MP2/6-311G（d,p） level. Reactions associated with four intermediates（cis-HNNO, trans-HNNO, NNHO, and NNOH） were investigated. The results indicate that N2H＋O reaction toward H＋N2O is more favored than that toward N2＋OH, consistent with previous experimental studies. The pathways for the two reactions are found to go through cis-HNNO, transition state, and finally to the products. The N2H＋O→NH＋NO reaction was studied in detail. Product NO in such a reaction is likely to occur via cis-HNNO, followed by trans-HNNO, and finally dissociates into NH＋NO. These results suggest that N2H＋O→NH＋NO is an important channel in NO production.     

O+HCNO反应势能面的理论研究

AIM Study on the Reaction of CH2SH Radical with Fluorine Atom

The reaction of CH2SH radical with fluorine atom was studied at the levels of B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) and MP2(Full)/6-311G(d,p). The computational results show that the reaction has three channels and proceeds by the addition of fluorine atoms on carbon or sulfur sites of CH2SH, forming initial intermediates. The calculated results show that the channel in which fluorine attaches to the carbon atom to form CH2S and HF, is the most likely reaction pathway. Topological analysis of electron density was carried out for the three channels. The change trends of the chemical bonds on the reaction paths were discussed. The energy transition states and the structure transition regions (states) of the three channels were found. The calculated results show that the structure transition regions are broad in unobvious exothermic reactions or unobvious endothermic reactions, and are narrow in obvious exothermic reactions or obvious endothermic reactions.
