Abstract
dc.description.abstract
The mechanism of a simple S N2 reaction, viz; OH - + CH 3F = CH 3OH + F - has been studied within the framework of reaction force and reaction electronic flux. We have computationally investigated three different types of reaction mechanisms with two different types of transition states, leading to two different products. The electronic transfer contribution of the reaction electronic flux was found to play a crucial role in this reaction. Natural bond order analysis and dual descriptor provide additional support for elucidating the mechanism of this reaction

In this paper, we assess the performance of 24 density functional theory (DFT) based methods classified into 5 categories (GGA, MGGA, HGGA, HMGGA and DHGGA) in predicting reaction energetics, transition state geometries, ...

The effects of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere can be reduced by closing
anthropogenic cycles, and the methanation of carbon dioxide with hydrogen provides
a promising option. Nevertheless, the reaction mechanism of ...
In this article, we present a complementary analysis based on the reaction force F(xi)/reaction force constant kappa(xi) and noncovalent interactions (NCI) index to characterize the energetics (kinetic and thermodynamics) ...
