Quasiclassical Trajectory Calculations of Stereodynamics and Product State Distributions in the Reaction of H with OCl
TLDR
In this article, a quasiclassical trajectory calculation for the reaction H + OCl OH + Cl, HCl + O has been carried out on the ground 11A' potential energy surface (PES) at the collision energy of 7.6 kcal/mol.Abstract:
A first quasiclassical trajectory calculation for the reaction H + OCl OH + Cl, HCl + O has been carried out on the ground 11A' potential energy surface (PES) at the collision energy of 7.6 kcal/mol. The stereodynamics and product state distributions were focused on computation and analysis. It was found that, for both the OH and HCl products, the product rotational alignment and orientation were very weak. Most of the OH products are at lower vibrational levels. The HCl products dominantly populate in the ground vibrational state v'=0. Inverted rotational state distributions were found in each of the vibrational state for both the OH and HCl products. As a consequence, the title reaction takes place dominantly through an indirect mechanism involving a long-lived complex.read more

A theoretical study of the vibrational energy spectrum of the hocl/hclo system on an accurate ab initio potential energy surface
TL;DR: In this paper, a global analytical potential energy surface was constructed for the X 1A′ electronic ground state of HOCl that accurately includes the HClO isomer, which was obtained by using accurate ab initio data from a previously published surface [Skokov et al., J. Phys. 109, 2662 (1998)], as well as a significant number of new data for the HOClO region of the surface at the same multireference configuration interaction.
