To describe the gas-phase hydrogen abstraction reaction between the hydroxyl radical and the ethane molecule, an analytical full-dimensional potential energy surface was developed within the Born–Oppenheimer approximation.

Within the Born–Oppenheimer approximation a full-dimensional analytical potential energy surface, PES-2017, was developed for the gas-phase hydrogen abstraction reaction between the chlorine atom and ethane, which is a nine body system.

Photochemically created πσ* states were classified among the most prominent factors determining the ultrafast radiationless deactivation and photostability of many biomolecular building blocks. In the past two decades, the gas phase photochemistry of πσ* excitations was extensively investigated and was attributed to N–H and O–H bond fission processes. However, complete understanding of the complex photorelaxation pathways of πσ* states in the aqueous environment was very challenging, owing to the direct participation of solvent molecules in the excited-state deactivation. Here, we present non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations and potential energy surface calculations of the photoexcited imidazole–(H2O)5 cluster using the algebraic diagrammatic construction method to the second-order [ADC(2)]. We show that electron driven proton transfer (EDPT) along a wire of at least two water molecules may lead to the formation of a πσ*/S0 state crossing, similarly to what we suggested for 2-aminooxazole. We expand on our previous findings by direct comparison of the imidazole–(H2O)5 cluster to non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations of imidazole in the gas phase, which reveal that the presence of water molecules extends the overall excited-state lifetime of the chromophore. To embed the results in a biological context, we provide calculations of potential energy surface cuts for the analogous photorelaxation mechanism present in adenine, which contains an imidazole ring in its structure.

We performed here a systematic ab initio calculations on neutral gas-phase L-proline. A total of 8 local minima were located by geometry optimization of the trial structures using density functional theory (DFT) with B3LYP three parameter hybrid potential coupled with the 6-31G)d( basis set. The absolute minimum obtained will be subject to a rigid potential energy surface (PES) scan by rotating its carboxylic group using the same method with more accurate basis set B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p), to get a deeper idea about its conformational stability. The main aim of the present work was the study of the rigidity of the L-proline structure and the puckering of its pyrrolidine ring.

An extensive investigation of the C6H9+ potential-energy surface by ab initio molecular orbital theory is reported. Calculations at the RHF/6-31G* level of theory predict that the bicyclo[2.1.1]hex-1-yl cation (2b) rearranges to the 3-methylenecyclopentyl cation (7b) with an energy barrier of only 0.3 kJ mol-1. Inclusion of electron correlation in the calculation casts doubt on the gas-phase existence of (2b) which is predicted to rearrange without barrier at the MP2/6-31G* level of theory.

In this paper we study the gas-phase hydrogen abstraction reaction between fluorine atoms and silane in a three-step process: potential energy surface, kinetics and dynamics. Firstly, we developed for the...
