The mechanisms corresponding to O-atom and N-atom transfer reactions have been revealed. It was found that on the sextet reaction surface both the O-atom and N-atom transfer reactions undergo through direct-abstraction mechanism, leading to the formation of OsO^+ and OsN^+, whereas on quartet surface the two reactions undergo through O-N bond or N-N bond insertion mechanism. The calculated energetics shows that the reactions on the sextet surface have notable energy barriers, whereas the reactions on quartet surface are barrierless. ?2009 Xiao Guang Xie.
