Abstract
A detailed dynamics study, using both quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) and reduced-dimensional quantum mechanical (QM) calculations, was carried out to understand the reactivity and mechanism of the Cl((2)P) + NH(3)→ HCl + NH(2) gas-phase reaction, which evolves through deep wells in the entry and exit channels. The calculations were performed on an analytical potential energy surface recently developed by our group, PES-2010 [M. Monge-Palacios, C. Rangel, J. C. Corchado and J. Espinosa-Garcia, Int. J. Quantum. Chem., 2011], together with a simplified model surface, mod-PES, in which the reactant well is removed to analyze its influence. The main finding was that the QCT and QM methods show a change of the reaction probability with collision energy, suggesting a change of the atomic-level mechanism of reaction with energy. This change disappeared when the mod-PES was used, showing that the behaviour at low energies is a direct consequence of the existence of the reactant well. Analysis of the trajectories showed that different mechanisms operate depending on the collision energy. Thus, while at high energies (E(coll) > 5 kcal mol(-1)) practically all trajectories are direct, at low energies (E(coll) < 3 kcal mol(-1)) the trajectories are indirect, i.e., with the mediation of a trapping complex in the entry and/or the exit wells. The reactant complex allows repeated encounters between the reactants, increasing the reaction probability at low energies. The differential cross section results reinforce this change of mechanism, showing also the influence of the reactant well on this reaction. Thus, the PES-2010 surface yields a forward-backward symmetry in the scattering, while when the reactant well is removed with the mod-PES the shape is more isotropic.

Abstract
In recent years, many chemical reactions have been studied by means of the quasiclassical trajectory (QCT) method within the Gaussian binning (GB) procedure. The latter consists of "quantizing" the final vibrational actions in Bohr spirit by putting strong emphasis on the trajectories reaching the products with vibrational actions close to integer values. A major drawback of this procedure is that if N is the number of product vibrational modes, the amount of trajectories necessary to converge the calculations is ∼10(N)×larger than with the standard QCT method. Applying it to polyatomic processes is thus problematic. In a recent paper, however, Czakó and Bowman propose to quantize the total vibrational energy instead of the vibrational actions [G. Czakó and J. M. Bowman, J. Chem. Phys. 131, 244302 (2009)], a procedure called 1GB here. The calculations are then only ∼10 times more time consuming than with the standard QCT method, allowing thereby for considerable numerical saving. In this paper, we propose some theoretical arguments supporting the 1GB procedure and check its validity on model test cases as well as the prototype four-atom reaction OH+D(2)→HOD+D.

Abstract
To analyze the effect of the C-H stretch mode excitation on the dynamics of the Cl + CHD3 gas-phase abstraction reaction, an exhaustive state-to-state dynamics study was performed. This reaction can evolve along two channels: H-abstraction, CD3 + ClH, and D-abstraction, CHD2 + ClD. On an analytical potential energy surface constructed previously by our group, named PES-2005, quasi-classical trajectory calculations were performed at a collision energy of 0.18 eV, including corrections to avoid zero-point energy leakage along the trajectories. First, strong coupling between different vibrational modes in the entry valley was observed; i.e., the reaction is vibrationally nonadiabatic. Second, for the ground-state CHD3(nu=0) reaction, the diatomic fragments appeared in their ground states, and the H- and D-abstraction reactions showed similar reactivities. However, when the reactivity per atom is considered, the H is three times more reactive than the D atom. Third, when the C-H stretch mode is excited by one quantum, CHD3(nu1=1), the H-abstraction is strongly favored, and the C-H stretch excitation is maintained in the product CHD2(nu1=1) + ClD channel; i.e., the reaction shows mode selectivity, reproducing the experimental evidence, and also the reactivity of the vibrational ground state is increased, in agreement with experiment. Fourth, the state-to-state angular distributions of the CD3 and CHD2 products showed the products to be practically sideways for the reactant ground state, while the C-H excitation yielded a more forward scattering, reproducing the experimental data. The role of the zero-point energy correction was also analyzed, and we find that the dynamics results are very sensitive on how the ZPE issue is treated. Finally, a comparison is made with the similar H + CHD3(nu1=0,1) and Cl + CH4(nu1=0,1) reactions.

Abstract
A state-to-state dynamics study was performed at a collision energy of 1.53 eV to analyze the effect of the C-H stretch mode excitation on the dynamics of the gas-phase H+CHD3 reaction, which can evolve along two channels, H-abstraction, CD3+H2, and D-abstraction, CHD2+HD. Quasi-classical trajectory calculations were performed on an analytical potential energy surface constructed previously by our group. First, strong coupling between different vibrational modes in the entry channel was observed; i.e., the reaction is non-adiabatic. Second, we found that the C-H stretch mode excitation has little influence on the product rotational distributions for both channels, and on the vibrational distribution for the CD3+H2 channel. However, it has significant influence on the product vibrational distribution for the CHD2+HD channel, where the C-H stretch excitation is maintained in the products, i.e., the reaction shows mode selectivity, reproducing the experimental evidence. Third, the C-H stretch excitation by one quantum increases the reactivity of the vibrational ground-state, in agreement with experiment. Fourth, the state-to-state angular distributions of the CD3 and CHD2 products are reported, finding that for the reactant ground-state the products are practically sideways, whereas the C-H excitation yields a more forward scattering.

Abstract
A new potential energy surface for the gas-phase F(2P)+CH4 reaction and its deuterated analogues is reported, and its kinetics and dynamics are studied exhaustively. This semiempirical surface is completely symmetric with respect to the permutation of the four methane hydrogen atoms, and it is calibrated to reproduce the topology of the reaction and the experimental thermal rate constants. For the kinetics, the thermal rate constants were calculated using variational transition-state theory with semiclassical transmission coefficients over a wide temperature range, 180-500 K. The theoretical results reproduce the experimental variation with temperature. The influence of the tunneling factor is negligible, due to the flattening of the surface in the entrance valley, and we found a direct dependence on temperature, and therefore positive and small activation energies, in agreement with experiment. Two sets of kinetic isotope effects were calculated, and they show good agreement with the sparse experimental data. The coupling between the reaction coordinate and the vibrational modes shows qualitatively that the FH stretching and the CH3 umbrella bending modes in the products appear vibrationally excited. The dynamics study was performed using quasi-classical trajectory calculations, including corrections to avoid zero-point energy leakage along the trajectories. First, we found that the FH(nu',j') rovibrational distributions agree with experiment. Second, the excitation function presents an oscillatory pattern, reminiscent of a reactive resonance. Third, the state specific scattering distributions present reasonable agreement with experiment, and as the FH(nu') vibrational state increases the scattering angle becomes more forward. These kinetics and dynamics results seem to indicate that a single, adiabatic potential energy surface is adequate to describe this reaction, and the reasonable agreement with experiment (always qualitative and sometimes quantitative) lends confidence to the new surface.

Abstract
The effects of the methane torsional (nu(2)), umbrella (nu(4)), and the combination nu(2)+nu(4) bending mode excitations on the reactivity and dynamics of the gas-phase Cl + CH(4) --> HCl + CH(3) reaction were analyzed. Quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations, including corrections to avoid zero-point energy leakage along the trajectories, were used on an analytical potential energy surface previously developed by our group. With respect to the reactivity, we found that excitation of either bending mode independently gave similar increases in the reactivity, while the increase observed upon excitation of both modes was larger than the sum of the effect of exciting them independently. Both results agree with recent experimental measures. With respect to the dynamics (rotovibrational and angular distributions of the products), the two bending modes and their combination gave very similar pictures, reproducing the experimental behavior. The satisfactory agreement obtained with a great variety of experimental data (always qualitatively acceptable and sometimes even quantitatively) of the present QCT study lends confidence to the potential energy surface constructed by our group.

Abstract
Kinetics of the reaction Br + CH2ClBr <--> CHClBr + HBr (1, -1) were studied experimentally in the forward direction. The absolute reaction kinetics method of laser flash photolysis coupled with Br atom resonance fluorescence detection and three different relative-rate methods with gas-chromatographic analysis were applied to carry out the experiments. The rate constants determined were found to obey the Arrhenius law in the wide temperature range of T = 293-785 K providing the kinetic expression k1 = (2.8 +/- 0.1) x 10(13) exp[-(47.6 +/- 0.3) kJ mol(-1)/RT] cm3 mol(-1) s(-1) (the errors given refer to 1sigma precision). An ab initio direct dynamics method was used to study reaction (1, -1) theoretically. The electronic structure information including geometries, gradients, and force constants was obtained at the MP2 level of theory; and energies were improved at higher theoretical levels. Rate constants were calculated using the canonical variational transition state theory with small-curvature tunneling correction over the temperature range 200-1000 K. Theory substantially underestimates k1 compared to experiment. The agreement was found good with k(-1) reported previously predicting positive temperature dependence. The experimental kinetic parameters were utilized in thermochemical calculations yielding the recommended standard enthalpy of formation of delta(f)H degrees (298) (CHClBr) = (140 +/- 4) kJ mol(-1) (with 2sigma accuracy given).

Abstract
The antioxidant activity of alpha-tocopherol against the damaging hydroxyl radical was analyzed theoretically by hybrid density functional theory, following the direct dynamics method, where the thermal rate constants were calculated using variational transition-state theory with multidimensional tunneling. We found that the OH radical is only slightly or not at all selective, attacking by different mechanisms at several positions of the alpha-tocopherol molecule, giving competitive reactions. The most favorable pathways are the hydrogen abstraction reaction from the phenolic hydrogen and the electrophilic addition onto the aromatic ring. We propose a final rate constant, the sum of the competitive hydrogen abstraction and addition reactions, > or =2.7 x 10(8) M(-1) s(-1) at 298 K, where the hydrogen abstraction reaction represents only 20% of the total OH radical reaction. This result indicates that, molecule by molecule, in an apolar environment, alpha-tocopherol is less effective than coenzyme Q (which presents a rate constant of 6.2 x 10(10) M(-1) s(-1) at 298 K) as a scavenger of OH radicals. It was also found that both mechanisms are not direct but pass through intermediates in the entry channel, with little or no influence on the dynamics of the reactions. The hydrogen abstraction reaction also presents another intermediate in the exit channel, which may have a significant role in preventing the pro-oxidant effects of alpha-tocopherol, although less important than with free radicals other than OH.

Abstract
An analytical potential energy surface for the gas-phase CCl4 + H --> CCl3 + ClH reaction was constructed with suitable functional forms to represent vibrational modes. This surface is completely symmetric with respect to the permutation of the four chlorine atoms and is calibrated with respect to experimental thermal rate constants available over the temperature range 297-904 K. On this surface, the thermal rate constants were calculated using variational transition-state theory with semiclassical transmission coefficients over a wider temperature range 300-2500 K, therefore obtaining kinetics information at higher temperatures than are experimentally available. This surface was also used to analyze dynamical features, such as tunneling and reaction-path curvature. In the first case, the influence of the tunneling factor is very small since a heavy chlorine atom has to pass through the barrier. In the second, it was found that vibrational excitation of the Cl-H stretching mode can be expected in the exit channel.

Abstract
A modified and recalibrated potential energy surface (PES) is reported for the gas-phase F(2P(3/2),2P(1/2)) + CH4 reaction and its deuterated analogue. This semiempirical surface is completely symmetric with respect to the permutation of the four methane hydrogen atoms and is calibrated with respect to the updated experimental and theoretical stationary point properties and experimental thermal rate constants. To take into account the two spin-orbit electronic states of the fluorine atom, two versions of the surface were constructed, the PES-SO and PES-NOSO surfaces, which differ in the choice of the zero reference level of the reactants. On both surfaces, the thermal rate constants were calculated using variational transition-state theory with semiclassical transmission coefficients over a wide temperature range, 180-500 K. While the PES-SO surface overestimates the experimental rate constants, the PES-NOSO surface shows a better agreement, reproducing the experimental variation with temperature. The influence of the tunneling factor is negligible, due to the flattening of the surface in the entrance valley, and we found a direct dependence on temperature, and therefore positive and small activation energies, in agreement with experiment. The kinetic isotope effects calculated showed good agreement with the sparse experimental data at 283 and 298 K. Finally, on the PES-NOSO surface, other dynamical features, such as the coupling between the reaction coordinate and the vibrational modes, were analyzed. It was found qualitatively that the FH stretching and the CH3 umbrella bending modes in the products appear vibrationally excited. These kinetics and dynamics results seem to indicate that a single, adiabatic PES is adequate to describe this reaction.
