Quantum chemical calculations using density functional theory at the B3LYP level of theory were carried out to investigate the reaction pathways for the addition of ethylene to WO(CH3)2(CH2) (W1). The results are compared to those of previous theoretical studies of the ethylene addition to OsO3(CH2) (Os1) and ReO2(CH3)(CH2) (Re1). The theoretically predicted reactions pathways exhibit significant differences. The energetically most favourable reaction of the tungsten system W1 is the [2+2]W,C addition across theW=C double bond yielding the metallacyclobutane W3a which then rearranges to the slightly more stable isomer W3b. The [2+2]Re,C addition of the rhenium compound yielding the metallacyclobutane Re3a has the lowest activation barrier for the ethylene addition to the rhenium system, but the reaction is endothermic while the exothermic formation of the more stable isomer Re3b has a much higher activation barrier. The [3+2]C,O addition Os1+C2H4→Os2 is the thermodynamically most favorable reaction of the osmium compound.

The reaction mechanisms of HNCS with CH 2 CH radical have been investigated by density functional theory (DFT). The geometries and harmonic frequencies of the reactants, intermediates, transition states and products have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level. The results show that the reaction is very complicated. Nine possible reaction pathways were identified. The results show that the most feasible reaction channel is the hydrogen-transfer pathway CH 2 CH + HNCS → IMA1 → TSA1 → CH 2 CHH + NCS . The pathway VIC C-S addition channel ( CH 2 CH + HNCS → TSD5 → IMD4 → TSD9 → CH 2 CHS + CNH ) can also occur easily. Ethene and radical NCS is the main product of the studied reaction, and product P8 ( CH 2 CHS and CNH ) may also be observed. Compared with our previous study on the reaction HNCS + CH 2 CH , the present reaction is easier to proceed.
