Abstract
- The multiple-channel reactions OH + CH3SCH3 → products, CF3 + CH3SCH3 → products, and CH3 + CH3SCH3 → products are investigated by direct dynamics method. The optimized geometries, frequencies, and minimum energy path are all obtained at the MP2/6-31+G(d,p) level, and energetic information is further refined by the MC-QCISD (single-point) method. The rate constants for eight reaction channels are calculated by the improved canonical variational transition state theory with small-curvature tunneling contribution over the temperature range 200-3000 K. The total rate constants are in good agreement with the available experimental data and the three-parameter expressions k1 = 4.73 × 10-16T1.89 exp(-662.45/T), k2 = 1.02 × 10-32T6.04 exp(933.36/T), k3 = 3.98 × 10-35T6.60 exp(660.58/T) (in unit of cm3 molecule-1 s-1) over the temperature range of 200-3000 K are given. Our calculations indicate that hydrogen abstraction channels are the major channels and the others are minor channels over the whole temperature range. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
