Abstract

The addition of H atoms to benzene and toluene and subsequent transformations were investigated using high level ab initio and density functional theory methods. Molecular structures and vibrational frequencies calculated at the B3LYP/6‐311++G(d,p) level of theory were used in combination with adjusted G2M energetic parameters for RRKM rate constant calculations. Standard heats of formation for cyclohexadienyl and cyclohexadienyl, 6‐methyl radicals calculated through isodesmic reactions amounted to 49.5 Β± 2 and 42.9 Β± 3 kcal/mol, respectively. Rate constants for various elementary reactions involved in the H‐for‐X exchange (X = D, CH~3~) were calculated and closely correlated with the available experimental kinetic data.

A kinetic study of the reactions of H atoms with CH,SH and C2H6SH has been carried out at 298 K by the discharge flow technique with EPR and mass spectrometric analysis of the species. The pressure was 1 torr. It was found: k1 = (2.20 \* 0.20) x lo-'' for the reaction H + CH3SH (1) and k2 = (2.40 t
