1 The Butler Group Benj FitzPatrick Britni Ratliff Bridget Alligood Doran Bennett Justine Bell Arjun Raman Emily Glassman Dr. Xiaonan Tang Molecular Beam Studies of the the Electronic and Nuclear Dynamics of Chemical Reactions: Accessing Radical Intermediates National Science Foundation, Chemistry Division Department of Energy, Basic Energy Sciences

2 Understanding Chemical Reactions: What is the nuclear dynamics during the reaction? (vibration and rotation in the colliding molecules) What is happening to the electrons in the system? (do they adjust instantaneously, or lag behind and cause nonadiabatic suppression of the reaction rate?) How can we get predictive ability from first principle quantum mechanics? How does this change our qualitative understanding of chemical reaction rates and product branching k(T)=Ae -E a /kT

3 We use a combination of state-of-the-art experimental techniques and theoretical analysis Molecular Beam analysis of product velocities and angular distributions State-selective velocity map imaging Electronic structure calculations of minima and transition states along each reaction coordinate (e.g. G3//B3LYP or CCSD(T) ) Analyzing the change in electronic wavefunction along the reaction coordinates.

4 O + propargyl  products H 2 C=C=CH   H 2 C-C=CH Addition mechanism forms or then ??? H 2 CCCH O O Many elementary bimolecular reactions proceed through addition/insertion, so go through unstable radical intermediates along the bimolecular reaction coordinate CH 3 O + CO  CH 3 OCO  CH 3 + CO 2

5 Traditional Crossed Molecular Beam Scattering or Imaging Expts are a good way to probe “Direct” Chemical Reactions Angular and Velocity Distribution of DF product shows Backward Scattered DF product Eg. D 2 + F  D … D … F  D + DF D…D…FD…D…F D-D  F

6 But how can one probe bimolecular reactions that proceed through long-lived radical intermediates? Eg. C 2 D + HCCH  DCCCCH + H Forward/Backward symmetric product angular distributions indicate there is a long-lived intermediate in the reaction. But what is happening along the reaction coordinate? Kaiser et al., PCCP 4, 2950 (2002)

7 But how can one probe bimolecular reactions that proceed through long-lived radical intermediates? Eg. C 2 D + HCCH  DCCCCH + H Kaiser et al., PCCP 4, 2950 (2002) UB3LYP/6-311+G** + ZPVE

(25.3) Expt’l dissociation onset at E T =18 kcal/mol gives Expt’l barrier of 23.2 ±2 kcal/mol H 2 C-CHCO Is this because the UB3LYP radical energy is too low or the TS energy is too high?

36 CH 3 + CO 2 CH 3 O + CO Why is the cis barrier so much lower than the trans one? H 3 C … O C = O 32.5 cis barrier is ~20 kcal/mol lower than trans (CCSD(T)) H … O C = O (34.2) (14.5) cis barrier is ~7 kcal/mol lower than trans Muckerman, FCC/CBS (2001)

37 CH 3 + CO 2 CH 3 O + CO Why is the cis barrier so much lower than the trans one? Think about the interaction between the radical orbital and the H 3 C-OCO antibonding orbital H 3 C … O C = O nCnC  * C-O Radical energy lowers due to interaction with  * C-O orbital as H 3 C-OCO bond stretches 32.5(34.2) (14.5).
