Abstract
A direct ab initio dynamics method is used to investigate the hydrogenโabstraction reaction CH~3~CHF~2~+Cl. One transition state is located for ฮฑโH abstraction, and two are identified for ฮฒโH abstraction. The potentialโenergy surface (PES) is obtained at the G3(MP2)//MP2/6โ311G(d, p) level. Furthermore, the rate constants of the three channels are evaluated by using canonical variational transitionโstate theory (CVT) with smallโcurvature tunneling (SCT) contributions over a wide temperature range of 200โ2500 K. The dynamic calculations show that the reaction proceeds mainly by ฮฑโH abstraction over the whole temperature range. The calculated rate constants and branching ratios are both in good agreement with the available experimental values.
