Abstract: | The reaction mechanism between AlX and HX (X = Br, Cl, and F) have been characterized in detail using DFT as well as the ab initio method. The reaction yielding AlX3 and molecular hydrogen was calculated to be highly exothermic. The present calculations also show that the possible routes
to the trihalides species start more favorable with the primary insertion product AlX2H than with the biadduct AlX(HX)2 one.
