✦ Synopsis


Accurate ab initio computations have been carried out on the minima and saddle points involved in the dynamics of the reaction of P+ with water using a slightly modified version of G 1 and G2 theories (J. Chem. Phys. 94 ( 199 1) 43 1 S ). In addition, an approximate classical trajectory method and RRKM theory (Progr. Energy Combust. Sci. f 8 ( 1992) 75 ) have been employed

to study the dynamics of such a reaction. The results indicate that intersystem crossing must take place giving HPOH+ ('A'), which could be the intermediate responsible for the production of both PO'( 'Z+ ) + H2( 'Cz ) and POHf ( 2A') +H(*S).
