Kinetics and Mechanistic Investigations of Atmospheric Oxidation of HFO-1345fz by OH Radical: Insights from Theory.

TL;DR: Structural and energetics of different reaction pathways such as hydrogen abstraction, •OH addition, isomerization-dissociation, or interaction with atmospheric O2 have been analyzed and formation of gaseous products from the interaction of HFO-1345fz with •OH in the absence and presence of NOx atmospheric conditions has been reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and biological activity of imidazole based 1,4-naphthoquinones

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the syntheses and antibacterial and antifungal activities of imidazole-based 1,4-naphthoquinones and their precursors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical investigation on the kinetics and branching ratio of the gas phase reaction of sevoflurane with Cl atom.

TL;DR: It has been found that 99 % of the reaction proceeded via the H-atom abstraction from the –CH2F end of the sevoflurane, and the rate constants were calculated using conventional transition state theory (TST).
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding the Atmospheric Oxidation of HFE-7500 (C3F7CF(OC2H5)CF(CF3)2) Initiated by Cl Atom and NO3 Radical from Theory.

TL;DR: Kinetics and mechanistic pathways for atmospheric oxidation of HFE-7500 ( n-C3F7CF(OCH2CH3)CF(CF3)2) initiated by Cl atom and NO3 radical have been studied using density functional theory and temperature dependence of the rate constants and branching ratios for these pathways contributing to overall reaction are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computational study on the kinetics of OH initiated oxidation of methyl difluoroacetate (CF2HCOOCH3)

TL;DR: In this paper, the kinetics of hydrogen atom abstraction reactions of methyl difluoroacetate (CF2HCOOCH3) by OH radical has been studied by quantum mechanical method.
