Vibrational mode and collision energy effects on reaction of H2CO+ with CO2
Literature Information
Jianbo Liu, Brady W. Uselman, Brian Van Devener, Scott L. Anderson
The effects of collision energy (Ecol) and five different modes of H2CO+ vibration on the title reaction have been studied over the center-of-mass Ecol range from 0.1 to 3.2 eV, including measurements of product ion recoil velocity distributions. Electronic structure and Rice–Ramsperger–Kassel–Marcus calculations were used to examine properties of various complexes and transition states that might be important along the reaction coordinate. Two product channels are observed, corresponding to Hydrogen Transfer (HT) and Proton Transfer (PT). Both channels are endothermic with similar onset energies of ∼0.9 eV; however, HT dominates over the entire Ecol range and accounts for 70–85% of the total reaction cross section. Both HT and PT occur by direct mechanisms over the entire Ecol range, and have similar dependence on reactant vibrational and collision energy. Despite these similarities, and the fact that the two channels are nearly isoenergetic and differ only in which product moiety carries the charge, their dynamics appear quite different. PT occurs primarily in large impact parameter stripping collisions, where most of the available energy is partitioned to product recoil. HT, in contrast, results in internally hot products with little recoil energy and a more forward–backward symmetric product velocity distribution. Vibration is found to affect the reaction differently in different collision energy regimes. The appearance thresholds are found to depend only on total energy, i.e., all modes of vibration are equivalent to Ecol. With increasing Ecol, vibrational energy becomes increasingly effective, relative to Ecol, at driving reaction. For HT, this transition occurs just above threshold, while for PT it begins at roughly twice the threshold energy.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
