According to our calculation results, the different reaction mechanisms were found for the singlet and triplet potential energy surfaces (PESs). Especially, the crossing points (CPs) among different PESs were located by means of the intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) approach presented by Yoshizawa et al., and the structures and energies of the corresponding minimum energy crossing points (MECPs) were obtained by the mathematical algorithm proposed by Harvey et al.
