Unimolecular reaction rate theory for transition states of partial looseness. II. Implementation and analysis with applications to NO2 and C2H6 dissociations

Wardlaw, David M., Marcus, R. A.·1985·The Journal of Chemical Physics

Abstract

Implementation of RRKM theory for unimolecular dissociations having transition states of any degree of looseness is described for reactions involving dissociation into two fragments. The fragments may be atomic, diatomic, or polyatomic species. Action-angle and internal coordinates for the transitional modes of the reaction, transformations to Cartesian coordinates, and other calculational aspects are described. Results for the NO2→NO+O reaction are presented, including the dependence of the microcanonical rate constant on the bond fission and bending potentials for model potential energy surfaces. Illustrative calculations for the C2H6→2CH3 reaction are also given.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
