Abstract

Employing dimensionality-reduced time-independent quantum scattering theory and summation over all possible total angular momentum states, initial-state selected reaction cross sections for the exothermic gas-phase bimolecular nucleophilic substitution (SN2) reaction Cl− + CH3Br → ClCH3 + Br− have been calculated. The carbon–halogen bonds and the rotation of the methyl halides are taken into account. In agreement with previous calculations for J = 0, initial rotational motion of CH3Br decreases the reaction probability and consequently the cross sections. The experimentally obtained thermal rate constant for 300 K is reproduced within the experimental error. For lower temperatures, it is calculated to be below the experimental values but shows the same strong increase for T → 0.

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.
