Abstract:Three species involved in the nucleophilic substitution reaction of hydrosulfide ion and halomethanes are investigated by ab initio calculations. Geometries for stationary structures along the reaction paths are fully performed with the second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation approximation with the cc-pVDZ basis set. The monomer geometries determined by the MP2 method match the experimental results very well. Single point energy calculations are carried out at the coupled cluster with perturbative triple exci… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
