Geometries of the reactants, products, intermediate complexes, and transition states involved in this reaction have been optimized at the (U)B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level, and then their accurate relative energies have been improved using the G3MP2B3 method. The potential energy profile is confirmed via intrinsic reaction coordinate calculations of transition states. Four possible production channels are examined respectively, as H+ transfer, H-atom transfer, H2+ transfer, and bi- molecular nucleophilic substitution (SN2) reaction pathways. Based on present calculations, the H2+ transfer reaction is major among these four channels, which agrees with previous experimental conclusions.展开更多

Vibrationally excited products of HCI, CO, and CO2 are observed in the IR emission spectra and the product vibrational state distribution are determined which shows that HCI and CO are vibrationally excited with the nascent average vibrational energy estimated to be 59.8 and 51.8 kJ/mol respectively. In combination with the G3MP2//B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) calculations, the reaction mechanisms have been characterized and the energetically favorable reaction pathways have been suggested.展开更多

Seven isomers of silylenoid (C3H5O)H2SiLi, 1-7, are found. The [2,3]-silawittig rearrangement paths are followed using two isomers, 2 and 4, to yield the transition states as well as the products. In the transition state, the silicon center functions as a nucleophile and the aUyl as an electrophile. The interaction between the silicon and allylic sites leads to the formation of SiC(3) bond and the break of O-C(1) bond. Finally, the (allylsilyl)oxylithium (C3H5)H2SiOLi is obtained. The rearrangement paths are confirmed by the intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) calculations. The rearrangement mechanisms of reactions of 2 and 4 are similar, and the latter reaction is more favored in the gas phase and THF solvent. Also, the solvent effects are analyzed in this work.展开更多
