Three kinds of possible reaction mechanism of AlCl disproportionation reaction on the aluminum (100) surfaces have been taken into account. The structures of reactants and products have been optimized, transition states have been confirmed and activation energies have been calculated. The adsorption energy of reactants and desorption energy of products have been determined. All of these have been employed to confirm the reaction mechanism and the rate determining step ofAlCl disproportionation reaction on the aluminum (100) surfaces.展开更多

The minimum energy paths(MEP) of the reaction were calculated by using the density functional theory(DFT) at the B3LYP/6-311+G ** level, and the energies along the MEP were further refined at the QCISD(T)/6-311+G ** level. It is found that the reaction mechanism of the title reaction involves three channels, producing HCNO+CO, HONC+CO and HCN+CO 2 products, respectively. Channel 1 is the most favorable path. The rate constant for channel 1 were calculated over a temperature range of 800—2500 K by using the canonical variational transition-state theory(CVT). The rate constant for the main path is negatively dependent on temperature, which is a characteristic of radical reactions with negative activation energy, and the variational effect for the rate constant calculation is small in the whole temperature range.展开更多

Three different reaction paths (a, b, c) in the gas phase were obtained. The geometries, vibrational frequencies and energies of every stagnation point in the reaction channel were calculated and the mechanisms have been confirmed. The results show that path a has an activation energy of 79.12 kcal/mol, which was considered as the main reaction path. Comparably, paths b and c have the energy barriers of 125.07 and 136.25 kcal/mol, respectively. The reaction rate constant was calculated by TST method over a wide temperature range of 900~1600 K, which further confirmed that path a was the main reaction channel展开更多

The geometries of reactants, transition states, intermediates and products were optimized at the B3LYP/6-311+G** level by the BERNY gradient analysis method. Transition states and intermediates have been identified by vibrational frequency analysis. The relationship among reactants, intermediates, transition states and products was affirmed by IRC calculation. The variations of energy and geometry along the IRC-determined reaction paths were described. The possible reaction pathways were represented and the optimal one was decided from the viewpoint of energy.展开更多

The minimum energy paths (MEP) of the reaction were calculated using the density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-311+G** level, and the energies along the MEP were further refined at the QCISD(T)/6-311+G** level. As a result, the reaction mechanism of the title reaction involves three channels, producing HCS+NO and HNC+SO products, respectively. Path I and path II are competitive, with some advantages for path I in kinet-ics. As for path III, it looks difficult to react for its high energy barrier. Moreover, the rate constant have been cal-culated over the temperature range of 8002500 K using canonical variational transition-state theory (CVT). It was found that the rate constants for both path I and path II are negatively dependent on temperature, which is similar with the experimental results for reactions of NCS with NO and NO2, and the variational effect for the rate constant calculation plays an important role in whole temperature range.展开更多
