Abstract: | The N2H potential energy surface has been examined by ab initio molecular orbital theory using the 6-31G** basis set with correlation energy evaluated by Møller—Plesset perturbation theory to fourth order. The ΔE for N2H → N2 + H is ?14.4 kcal mol?1 and the barrier to dissociation is 10.5 kcal mol?1. Inclusion of zero-point vibrational energies reduces the barrier to 5.8 kcal mol?1. |
