An analytical potential energy surface for the gas-phase CCl4 + H --> CCl3 + ClH reaction was constructed with suitable functional forms to represent vibrational modes. This surface is completely symmetric with respect to the permutation of the four chlorine atoms and is calibrated with respect to experimental thermal rate constants available over the temperature range 297-904 K. On this surface, the thermal rate constants were calculated using variational transition-state theory with semiclassical transmission coefficients over a wider temperature range 300-2500 K, therefore obtaining kinetics information at higher temperatures than are experimentally available. This surface was also used to analyze dynamical features, such as tunneling and reaction-path curvature. In the first case, the influence of the tunneling factor is very small since a heavy chlorine atom has to pass through the barrier. In the second, it was found that vibrational excitation of the Cl-H stretching mode can be expected in the exit channel. 相似文献

The gas-phase reaction between chloromethane and hydrogen proceeds by two channels, Cl- and H-abstraction, and was chosen as a model of asymmetrically substituted polyatomic reactions of type CX3Y + A --> products. The analytical potential energy surface for this reaction was constructed with suitable functional forms to represent vibrational modes, and both channels were independently fitted to reproduce experimental and theoretical information only at the stationary points. The rate constants for the Cl- and H-channels and the overall reaction were calculated using variational transition-state theory with multidimensional tunneling effect over a wide temperature range, 298-3000 K. The Cl-abstraction reaction is preferred until 2100 K, while above this temperature the H-abstraction channel is favored. The theoretical overall rate constants agree with the experimental data in the common temperature range, 500-800 K, with a small curvature of the Arrhenius plot due mainly to the role of the tunneling in the H-abstraction channel. This surface was then used to analyze dynamical features, such as reaction-path curvature, and coupling between the reaction-coordinate and vibrational modes. It was found qualitatively that excitation of the C-Cl and C-H stretching reactive modes enhances the forward rate constants for the Cl- and H-abstraction channels, respectively, and only the Cl-H and H-H stretching modes in the products of the Cl- and H-abstraction reactions, respectively, appear vibrationally excited. 相似文献

A modified and recalibrated potential energy surface (PES) is reported for the gas-phase F(2P(3/2),2P(1/2)) + CH4 reaction and its deuterated analogue. This semiempirical surface is completely symmetric with respect to the permutation of the four methane hydrogen atoms and is calibrated with respect to the updated experimental and theoretical stationary point properties and experimental thermal rate constants. To take into account the two spin-orbit electronic states of the fluorine atom, two versions of the surface were constructed, the PES-SO and PES-NOSO surfaces, which differ in the choice of the zero reference level of the reactants. On both surfaces, the thermal rate constants were calculated using variational transition-state theory with semiclassical transmission coefficients over a wide temperature range, 180-500 K. While the PES-SO surface overestimates the experimental rate constants, the PES-NOSO surface shows a better agreement, reproducing the experimental variation with temperature. The influence of the tunneling factor is negligible, due to the flattening of the surface in the entrance valley, and we found a direct dependence on temperature, and therefore positive and small activation energies, in agreement with experiment. The kinetic isotope effects calculated showed good agreement with the sparse experimental data at 283 and 298 K. Finally, on the PES-NOSO surface, other dynamical features, such as the coupling between the reaction coordinate and the vibrational modes, were analyzed. It was found qualitatively that the FH stretching and the CH3 umbrella bending modes in the products appear vibrationally excited. These kinetics and dynamics results seem to indicate that a single, adiabatic PES is adequate to describe this reaction. 相似文献

On a recent analytical potential energy surface developed by two of the authors, an exhaustive kinetics study, using variational transition state theory with multidimensional tunneling effect, and dynamics study, using both quasi-classical trajectory and full-dimensional quantum scattering methods, was carried out to understand the reactivity of the NH(3) + H → NH(2) + H(2) gas-phase reaction. Initial state-selected time-dependent wave packet calculations using a full-dimensional model were performed, where the total reaction probabilities were calculated for the initial ground vibrational state and for four excited vibrational states of ammonia. Thermal rate constants were calculated for the temperature range 200-2000 K using the three methods and compared with available experimental data. We found that (a) the total reaction probabilities are very small, (b) the symmetric and asymmetric N-H stretch excitations enhance the reactivity, (c) the quantum-mechanical calculated thermal rate constants are about one order of magnitude smaller than the transition state theory results, which reproduce the experimental evidence, and (d) quasi-classical trajectory calculations, which were performed with the main goal of analyzing the influence of the zero-point energy problem on the final dynamics results, reproduce the quantum scattering calculations on the same surface. 相似文献

Variational transition state theory calculations with the correction of multidimensional tunneling are performed on a 12-dimensional ab initio potential energy surface for the H + SiH(4) abstraction reaction. The surface is constructed using a dual-level strategy. For the temperature range 200-1600 K, thermal rate constants are calculated and kinetic isotope effects for various isotopic species of the title reaction are investigated. The results are in very good agreement with available experimental data. 相似文献

The hydrogen abstraction reactions C2H + CH3CN --> products (R1), C2H + CH3CH2CN --> products (R2), and C2H + CH3CH2CH2CN --> products (R3) have been investigated by dual-level generalized transition state theory. Optimized geometries and frequencies of all the stationary points and extra points along the minimum-energy path (MEP) are performed at the BH&H-LYP and MP2 methods with the 6-311G(d, p) basis set, and the energy profiles are further refined at the MC-QCISD level of theory. The rate constants are evaluated using canonical variational transition state theory (CVT) with a small-curvature tunneling correction (SCT) over a wide temperature range 104-2000 K. The calculated CVT/SCT rate constants are in good agreement with the available experimental values. Our calculations show that for reaction R2, the alpha-hydrogen abstraction channel and beta-hydrogen abstraction channel are competitive over the whole temperature range. For reaction R3, the gamma-hydrogen abstraction channel is preferred at lower temperatures, while the contribution of beta-hydrogen abstraction will become more significant with a temperature increase. The branching ratio to the alpha-hydrogen abstraction channel is found negligible over the whole temperature range. 相似文献

The adiabatic capture centrifugal sudden approximation (ACCSA) has been applied to the ground state reaction N+NH-->N2+H over the temperature range 2-300 K using an existent potential energy surface. The resultant thermal rate constants are in agreement with available rate constants from quasi-classical trajectory calculations but are significantly larger than the available experimentally derived rate. The calculated rate constants monotonically increase with increasing temperature but could only be approximately described with a simple Arrhenius-like form. Subtle quantum effects are evident in the initial rotational state resolved cross sections and rate constants. 相似文献

A new potential energy surface for the gas-phase F(2P)+CH4 reaction and its deuterated analogues is reported, and its kinetics and dynamics are studied exhaustively. This semiempirical surface is completely symmetric with respect to the permutation of the four methane hydrogen atoms, and it is calibrated to reproduce the topology of the reaction and the experimental thermal rate constants. For the kinetics, the thermal rate constants were calculated using variational transition-state theory with semiclassical transmission coefficients over a wide temperature range, 180-500 K. The theoretical results reproduce the experimental variation with temperature. The influence of the tunneling factor is negligible, due to the flattening of the surface in the entrance valley, and we found a direct dependence on temperature, and therefore positive and small activation energies, in agreement with experiment. Two sets of kinetic isotope effects were calculated, and they show good agreement with the sparse experimental data. The coupling between the reaction coordinate and the vibrational modes shows qualitatively that the FH stretching and the CH3 umbrella bending modes in the products appear vibrationally excited. The dynamics study was performed using quasi-classical trajectory calculations, including corrections to avoid zero-point energy leakage along the trajectories. First, we found that the FH(nu',j') rovibrational distributions agree with experiment. Second, the excitation function presents an oscillatory pattern, reminiscent of a reactive resonance. Third, the state specific scattering distributions present reasonable agreement with experiment, and as the FH(nu') vibrational state increases the scattering angle becomes more forward. These kinetics and dynamics results seem to indicate that a single, adiabatic potential energy surface is adequate to describe this reaction, and the reasonable agreement with experiment (always qualitative and sometimes quantitative) lends confidence to the new surface. 相似文献

A quantum-mechanical model is designed for the calculation of termolecular association reaction rate coefficients in the low-pressure fall-off regime. The dynamics is set up within the energy transfer mechanism and the kinetic scheme is the steady-state approximation. We applied this model to the formation of ozone O + O2 + M --> O3 + M for M = Ar, making use of semiquantitative potential energy surfaces. The stabilization process is treated by means of the vibrational close-coupling infinite order sudden scattering theory. Major approximations include the neglect of the O3 vibrational bending mode and rovibrational couplings. We calculated individual isotope-specific rate constants and rate constant ratios over the temperature range 10-1000 K and the pressure fall-off region 10(-7)-10(2) bar. The present results show a qualitative and semiquantitative agreement with available experiments, particularly in the temperature region of atmospheric interest. 相似文献

The multiple-channel reactions Br + CH(3)SCH(3) --> products are investigated by direct dynamics method. The optimized geometries, frequencies, and minimum energy path are all obtained at the MP2/6-31+G(d,p) level, and energetic information is further refined by the G3(MP2) (single-point) theory. The rate constants for every reaction channels, Br + CH(3)SCH(3) --> CH(3)SCH(2) + HBr (R1), Br + CH(3)SCH(3) --> CH(3)SBr + CH(3) (R2), and Br + CH(3)SCH(3) -->CH(3)S + CH(3)Br (R3), are calculated by canonical variational transition state theory with small-curvature tunneling correction over the temperature range 200-3000 K. The total rate constants are in good agreement with the available experimental data, and the two-parameter expression k(T) = 2.68 x 10(-12) exp(-1235.24/T) cm(3)/(molecule s) over the temperature range 200-3000 K is given. Our calculations indicate that hydrogen abstraction channel is the major channel due to the smallest barrier height among three channels considered, and the other two channels to yield CH(3)SBr + CH(3) and CH(3)S + CH(3)Br are minor channels over the whole temperature range. 相似文献

Classical trajectory calculations using the MERCURY/VENUS code have been carried out on the H+O(2) reactive system using the DMBE-IV potential energy surface. The vibrational quantum number and the temperature were selected over the ranges nu=0 to 15, and T=300 to 10 000 K, respectively. All other variables were averaged. Rate constants were determined for the energy transfer process, H+O(2)(nu)-->H+O(2)(nu(")), for the bimolecular exchange process, H+O(2)(nu)-->OH(nu('))+O, and for the dissociative process, H+O(2)(nu)-->H+O+O. The dissociative process appears to be a mere extension of the process of transferring large amounts of energy. State-to-state rate constants are given for the exchange reaction, and they are in reasonable agreement with previous results, while the energy transfer and dissociative rate constants have never been reported previously. The lifetime distributions of the HO(2) complex, calculated as a function of v and temperature, were used as a basis for determining the relative contributions of various vibrational states of O(2) to the thermal rate coefficients for recombination at various pressures. This novel approach, based on the complex's ability to survive until it collides in a secondary process with an inert gas, is used here for the first time. Complete falloff curves for the recombination of H+O(2) are also calculated over a wide range of temperatures and pressures. The combination of the two separate studies results in pressure- and temperature-dependent rate constants for H+O(2)(nu)(+Ar) right arrow over left arrow HO(2)(+Ar). It is found that, unlike the exchange reaction, vibrational and rotational-translational energy are liabilities in promoting recombination. 相似文献

The multiple-channel reactions OH + CH3NHC(O)OCH3 --> products are investigated by direct dynamics method. The optimized geometries, frequencies, and minimum energy path are all obtained at the MP2/6-311+G(d,p) level, and energetic information is further refined by the BMC-CCSD (single-point) method. The rate constants for every reaction channels, R1, R2, R3, and R4, are calculated by canonical variational transition state theory with small-curvature tunneling correction over the temperature range 200-1000 K. The total rate constants are in good agreement with the available experimental data and the two-parameter expression k(T) = 3.95 x 10(-12) exp(15.41/T) cm3 molecule(-1) s(-1) over the temperature range 200-1000 K is given. Our calculations indicate that hydrogen abstraction channels R1 and R2 are the major channels due to the smaller barrier height among four channels considered, and the other two channels to yield CH3NC(O)OCH3 + H2O and CH3NHC(O)(OH)OCH3 + H2O are minor channels over the whole temperature range. 相似文献

Initial state-selected time-dependent wave packet dynamics calculations have been performed for the H2+NH2-->H+NH3 reaction using a seven dimensional model on an analytical potential energy surface based on the one developed by Corchado and Espinosa-Garcia [J. Chem. Phys. 106, 4013 (1997)]. The model assumes that the two spectator NH bonds are fixed at their equilibrium values and nonreactive NH2 group keeps C2v symmetry and the rotation-vibration coupling in NH2 is neglected. The total reaction probabilities are calculated when the two reactants are initially at their ground states, when the NH2 bending mode is excited, and when H2 is on its first vibrational excited state, with total angular momentum J=0. The converged cross sections for the reaction are also reported for these initial states. Thermal rate constants and equilibrium constants are calculated for the temperature range of 200-2000 K and compared with transition state theory results and the available experimental data. The study shows that (a) the reaction is dominated by ground-state reactivity and the main contribution to the thermal rate constants is thought to come from this state, (b) the excitation energy of H2 was used to enhance reactivity while the excitation of the NH2 bending mode hampers the reaction, (c) the calculated thermal rate constants are very close to the experimental data and transition state theory results at high and middle temperature, while they are ten times higher than that of transition state theory at low temperature (T=200 K), and (d) the equilibrium constants results indicate that the approximations applied may have different roles in the forward and reverse reactions. 相似文献

The multiple channel reaction H + CH(3)CH(2)Cl --> products has been studied by the ab initio direct dynamics method. The potential energy surface information is calculated at the MP2/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. The energies along the minimum energy path are further improved by single-point energy calculations at the PMP4(SDTQ)/6-311+G(3df,2p) level of theory. For the reaction, four reaction channels (one chlorine abstraction, one alpha-hydrogen abstraction, and two beta-hydrogen abstractions) have been identified. The rate constants for each reaction channel are calculated by using canonical variational transition state theory incorporating the small-curvature tunneling correction in the temperature range 298-5000 K. The total rate constants, which are calculated from the sum of the individual rate constants, are in good agreement with the experimental data. The calculated temperature dependence of the branching fractions indicates that for the title reaction, H-abstraction reaction is the major reaction channel in the whole temperature range 298-5000 K. 相似文献

Kinetics of the hydrogen abstraction reaction (*)CH(3) + CH(4) --> CH(4) + (*)CH(3) is studied by a direct dynamics method. Thermal rate constants in the temperature range of 300-2500 K are evaluated by the canonical variational transition state theory (CVT) incorporating corrections from tunneling using the multidimensional semiclassical small-curvature tunneling (SCT) method and from the hindered rotations. These results are used in conjunction with the Reaction Class Transition State Theory/Linear Energy Relationship (RC-TST/LER) to predict thermal rate constants of any reaction in the hydrogen abstraction class of (*)CH(3) + alkanes. Our analyses indicate that less than 40% systematic errors on the average exist in the predicted rate constants using the RC-TST/LER method while comparing to explicit rate calculations the differences are less than 100% or a factor of 2 on the average. 相似文献

A new algorithm [Nguyen, T. L.; Stanton, J. F.; Barker, J. R. Chem. Phys. Lett. 2010, 9, 499] for the semiclassical transition-state theory (SCTST) formulated by W. H. Miller and co-workers is used to compute rate constants for the isotopologues of the title reaction, with no empirical adjustments. The SCTST and relevant results from second-order vibrational perturbation theory (VPT2) are summarized. VPT2 is used at the CCSD(T) level of electronic structure theory to compute the anharmonicities of the fully coupled vibrational modes (including the reaction coordinate) of the transition structure. The anharmonicities are used in SCTST to compute the rate constants over the temperature range from 200 to 2500 K. The computed rate constants are compared to experimental data and theoretical calculations from the literature. The SCTST results for absolute rate constants and for both primary and secondary isotope effects are in excellent agreement with the experimental data for this reaction over the entire temperature range. The sensitivity of SCTST to various parameters is investigated by using a set of simplified models. The results show that multidimensional tunneling along the curved reaction path is important at low temperatures and the anharmonic coupling among the vibrational modes is important at high temperatures. The theoretical kinetics data are also presented as fitted empirical algebraic expressions. 相似文献

We present a direct ab initio and hybrid density functional theory dynamics study of the thermal rate constants of the unimolecular decomposition reaction of C2H5O-->CH2O + CH3 at a high-pressure limit. MPW1K/6-31+G(d,p), MP2/6-31+G(d,p), and MP2(full)/6-31G(d) methods were employed to optimize the geometries of all stationary points and to calculate the minimum energy path (MEP). The energies of all the stationary points were refined at a series of multicoefficient and multilevel methods. Among all methods, the QCISD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ energies are in good agreement with the available experimental data. The rate constants were evaluated based on the energetics from the QCISD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ//MPW1K/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory using both microcanonical variational transition state theory (microVT) and RRKM theory with the Eckart tunneling correction in the temperature range of 300-2500 K. The calculated rate constants at the QCISD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ/MPW1K/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory are in good consistent with experimental data. The fitted three-parameter Arrhenius expression from the microVT/Eckart rate constants in the temperature range 200-2500 K is k = 2.52 x 10(12)T(0.41)e(-8894.0/T) s(-1). The falloff curves of pressure-dependent rate constants are performed using master-equation method within the temperature range of 391-471 K. The calculated results are in good agreement with the available experimental data. 相似文献

The potential energy surfaces for the CF3H unimolecular dissociation reaction and reactions of CF3H with free radical OH and H were investigated at the B3LYP6-311++G(**) and QCISD(T)6-311++G(**) levels and by the G3B3 theory. All the possible stationary and first-order saddle points along the reaction paths were verified by the vibrational analysis. The calculations account for all the product channels. The reaction enthalpies obtained at the G3B3 level are in good agreement with the available experiments. Canonical transition-state theory with Wigner tunneling correction was used to predict the rate constants for the temperature range of 298-2500 K without any artificial adjustment, and tshe computed rate constants for elementary channels can be accurately fitted with three-parameter Arrhenius expressions. The theoretical rate constants of the CF3H+H reaction agree with the available experimental data very well. The theoretical and experimental rate constants for the CF3H+OH reaction are in reasonable agreement. The H abstraction of CF3H by OH is found to be the main reaction channel for the CF3H fire extinguishing reactions while the CF3H unimolecular dissociation reaction plays a negligible role. 相似文献

The hydrogen abstraction reaction from H2 by the Cl atom is studied by means of the variational transition state theory with semiclassical tunneling coefficients on the BW2 potential energy surface. Vibrational anharmonicity and coupling between the bending modes are taken into account. The occurrence of trajectories that recross the transition state is estimated by means of the canonical unified statistical method and by classical trajectories calculations. Different semiclassical methods for tunneling calculations are tested. Our results show that anharmonicity has a small but nonnegligible effect on the thermal rate constants, recrossing can be neglected, and tunneling is adequately described by the least-action approximation, and less successfully by the large-curvature version 3 approximation. However, the large-curvature version 4 and small-curvature approximations lead to a severe underestimation of tunneling. Thermal rate constants calculated using transition state theory including anharmonicity and tunneling agree very well with accurate quantal thermal rate constants over a wide temperature range, although the improvement over the harmonic transition state theory with the microcanonically optimized semiclassical tunneling approximation (based on version 3 of the large-curvature tunneling method) used in a previous study of this reaction is only marginal. 相似文献

Variational transition-state theory rate constants with multidimensional tunneling contributions using the small curvature method have been calculated for the CF3CH2CH3 (HFC-263fb) + OH reaction over a temperature range from 200 to 373 K. The mPW1B95-41.0 hybrid functional, parametrized by Albu and Swaminathan to generate theoretical rate constants nearly identical to the experimental values for the CH3F + OH reaction, has been used in conjunction with the 6-31+G** basis set to explore the potential energy surface of the title reaction. The good agreement found between theoretical predictions and the experimental data available suggests that the present approach is an excellent option to obtain high-quality results at low computational cost for direct dynamics studies of hydrogen abstraction reactions from complex hydrofluorocarbons. The reliability of the structure activity relationship used to estimate rate constant values for OH reactions with hydrofluorocarbons is also discussed in detail. 相似文献
