The geometries and energies of the reactants, intermediates, products and transition states of the triplet ground potential energy surfaces of [Ni, O, C2, H4] were obtained at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) levels in C,H,O atoms and B3LYP/ Lanl2 dz in Ni atom. It was found through our calculations that the decabonylation of acetaldehyde contains four steps including encounter complexation, C-C activation, aldehyde H-shift and nonreactive dissociation. The results revealed that C-C activation induced by Ni L2(L=SO3CH3) led to the decarbonylation of acetaldehyde.展开更多

Transition states of three reaction channels were consequently given. The results indicate that in the title reaction the least activation energy of bi-molecular reaction was smaller than the dissociation energies of I2 and Cl2, and thus the reaction mechanism was the course of molecule-molecule interaction at low reaction rate. If other factors such as illumination were taken into account, I2 could dissociate into I atoms and then react with Cl2, or Cl2 dissociates into CI atoms and reacts with I2. These were photochemical reactions with high reaction speed. The theoretical results were further validated with absorbance measurement at 516 nm.展开更多
