“…161,400 Various types of reaction coordinates can be used in this stage, for example, a geometry-based reaction coordinate, such as a distinguished reaction coordinate (DRC) described by the difference of the breaking and forming bond distances, 30,97,144,170,171,404 or a collective reaction coordinate, 27,120,131,161,168,265,295,299,[405][406][407] defined in terms of the energy gap 406 between the valence bond states corresponding to the reactant and product states. [512][513][514] Alternatively, for H transfer, when the donor and acceptor experience changes of the hybridization states, recent studies emphasized the usefulness of employing the change of one or both hybridization states as the DRC. 408 Any combination of bond distances, bond angles, or torsion angles is called a valence coordinate, whereas quantities based on diabatic potentials or electrostatic fields that depend on solvent or bath coordinates are often called collective solvent coordinates.…”
