Subscript textIn order to clarify the reaction mechanisms of the singlet monochlorocarbene radical (1 CHCl) with 3O2 on the singlet potential energy surface (PES), a detailed theoretical study was carried out at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level.

The product channel of P2 (CO2 + HCl) is the most competitive one both kinetically and thermodynamically. P1 (HCO + ClO) is the least favorable.

The detailed singlet potential energy surface (PES) of the reaction of Ni ( d 10 1 S ) + H 2 + CO 2→ NiCO + H2O is investigated at the CCSD(T) /6-311+ G(2d,2p) // B3LYP /6-311+ G(2d,2p) levels in order to explore possible reaction mechanism of CO 2 hydrogenation on Ni center. The calculation predicts that the co-interacted H 2 involved C–O bond cleavage of CO 2 molecule is prior to the dissociation of adsorbed H 2 molecule, and the entire reaction is exothermic by 297.3 kJ/mol with an energy barrier of 137.7 kJ/mol. The rate-determining step (RDS) for the overall reaction is predicted to be the insertion of Ni into the C–O bond of the CO 2 moiety.

The mechanism of the reaction of the monobromocarbene (1CHBr) with3O2was studied theoretically at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level on the singlet potential energy surface (PES). All structures of the stationary points (reactants, intermediates, transition states and products) were optimized and their energies were obtained. Three product channels, P1(HCO + BrO), P2(CO2+ HBr) and P3(CO + HOBr), are found. P2(CO2+ HBr) is the most favorable one both kinetically and thermodynamically.

A detailed theoretical study was done in order to clarify the reaction mechanisms of the singlet dibromocarbene (1CBr2) with3O2on the singlet potential energy surface (PES). All the geometries of reactants, intermediates, transition states and products were obtained at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level. Intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) calculations at the same level were carried out to confirm the connections between transition states and intermediates. It is found that the initial adduct Br2COO (Cs) is formed via a barrierless association in the1CBr2+3O2reaction, and then some isomerizations and breakages of bonds take place, generating P1(BrCO + BrO), P2(CO + Br2O), P3(CO2+ Br2) and P4(CO2+ 2Br). P3(CO2+ Br2) is the most competitive channel kinetically and thermodynamically. P4(CO2+ 2Br) is the least favorable one kinetically.
