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 reaction mechanism between silacyclopropenylidene and three-membered heterocyclic compounds (azirane and oxirane) has been systematically investigated at the B3LYP/6-311+G* level of theory in order to better understand the reactivity of unsaturated cyclic silylene. Geometry optimizations and vibrational analyses have been conducted for the stationary points on the potential energy surface of the system. Calculations show that the Si-spiroheterocyclic intermediate and four-membered heterocyclic silylene compound could be produced through the insertion process and subsequent dissociation process between silacyclopropenylidene and three-membered heterocyclic compounds. For the insertion process, it is easier for silacyclopropenylidene to insert into C-N bond of azirane than into C-O bond of oxirane. This study is helpful to understand the reactivity of silacyclopropenylidene, the evolution of silicon-bearing molecules in space, and to offer an alternative approach to the formation of enlarged heterocyclic silylene compound.

The complex potential energy surface for the self-reaction of CH 2 ClO 2 radicals, including 12 intermediates, 33 interconversion transition states, and 21 major dissociation products, was theoretically probed at the CCSD(T)/cc-pVDZ//B3LYP/6-311G(2d,2p) level of theory. The geometries and relative energies for various stationary points were determined. Based on the calculated CCSD(T)/cc-pVDZ potential energy surface, the possible mechanism for the studied system was proposed. It is shown that the most feasible channels are those leading to 22 CH 2 ClO + 3 O 2, 2 CH 2 ClO + 2 HO 2 + CHClO , 2 CH 2 ClO + HCl + 2 CH(O)O 2, 2 CH 2 ClO + 3 O 2 + 2 Cl + CH 2 O , and p,s,o- CH 2 ClOOOCl + CH 2 O with the energy barriers of 5.6, 11.8, 12.4, 12.4, and 13.5 kcal/mol, respectively. Their mechanisms are that CH 2 ClO 2 and CH 2 ClO 2 form a tetroxide intermediate first, then the intermediate dissociates to yield the productions or through multi-steps reactions to produce the final products.
