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/6β311++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, 6βmethyl 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 HβforβX 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
The dual-level direct kinetics method has been used to investigate the multichannel reactions of C(2)H(5)I + Cl. Three hydrogen abstraction channels and one displacement process are found for the title reaction. The calculation indicates that the hydrogen abstraction from -CH(2)- group is the domina
Density functional theory (DFT) is used to theoretically investigate the electron-transfer (ET) reactions between M (Li, Na, Mg)-C 6 H 6 and M + -C 6 H 6 complexes in the gas phase. The geometry optimization of the metal-benzene complexes and the encounter state in the process of ET reaction was per
