✦ Synopsis
Ž 3 . Ž 1 . An ab initio study on the reaction of the ground state D and the excited state D of Sc q with methane was performed. Reaction channels on the singlet and triplet potential Ž . surface PES and the reaction mechanism are examined and discussed. Three regions of the potential surface was studied: the molecular complex, the C-H insertion products, and the transition states for the reaction. Comparisons between singlet and triplet PESs Ž 1 .
q show that the excited state D of Sc has more reactivity with methane than does the Ž 3 . ground state D due to the spin quantum number conservation with the more stable insertion intermediate.
