✦ Synopsis


Ab initio multicontlguration-based calculations have been performed on the nitro and nitrite adducts formed in the reaction between silyl radicals and nitrogen dioxide. Silyl radical binds to the nitrogen and oxygen atoms of NO1 with binding energies of about 53 and 77 kcal/mol, respectively. In marked contrast to the analogous isomerixation between nitromethane and methylnitrite, the potential energy surface for the isomerixation process SiH~02%XHsON0 has a low-energy and relatively tight transition state with closed-shell character, more closely resembling HNO,=HONO. Using Contlguration interaction energies computed at multiconfiguration self-consistent tleld structures, the following heats of formation are obtained: SiHsNOr, 1.5 kcal/mol; cis-SiHsONO, -2 1.7 kcal/mol; trans-SiHaONO, -22.7 kcal/mol, and SiHrO, -3.0 kcal/mol.

Ab initio calculations at the Hartree-Fock, MP2 and MP4 levels were performed to find structures of the equilibrium and transition states and the reaction energies and energies of activation of several competing reaction pathways of O (3P)+CH3SH. A 6-31G\* basis set was used in all calculations. The
