INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS The Royal Society of Chemistry welcomes submission of manuscripts intended for pub- lication in two forms, Research papers and Faraday Communications. These should describe original work of high quality in the sciences lying between chemistry, physics and biology, and particularly in the areas of physical chemistry, biophysical chemistry and chemical physics. Research Papers Full papers contain original scientific work which has not been published previously. However, work which has appeared in print in a short form such as a Faraday Communi- cation is normally acceptable.Four copies including a top copy with figures etc. should be sent to The Editor, Faraday Transactions, at the Editorial Office in Cambridge. Authors may, if they wish, suggest the names (with addresses) of up to three possible referees. Faraday Communications Faraday Communications contain novel scientific work in short form and of such importance that rapid publication is war-ranted. The total length is rigorously restricted to two pages of the double-column A4 format. For a Communication consisting entirely of text and ten references, with no figures, equations or tables, this cor- responds to approximately 1600 words plus an abstract of up to 40 words.Submission of a Faraday Communication can be made either to The Editor, Faraday Transactions, at the Editorial Office in Cam- bridge or via a member of the International Advisory Editorial Board, who will arrange for the manuscript to be reviewed. In the latter case, the top copy of the manuscript including any figures etc., together with the name of the person through whom the Com- munication is being submitted, should be sent simultaneously to the Editor at the Cambridge address. Proofs of Communications are not normally sent to authors unless this is specifically requested. Faraday Research Articles Faraday Research Articles are occasional invited articles which are published follow- ing review. They are designed to be topical articles of interest to a wide range of research scientists in the areas of Physical Chemistry, Biophysical Chemistry and Chemical Physics. Full details of the form of manuscripts for Articles and Faraday Communications, con-ditions for acceptance etc. are given in issue number one of Faraday Transactions, published in January of each year, or may be obtained from the Editorial Manager. There is no page charge for papers published in Faraday Transactions. Fifty reprints are supplied free of charge. Dr. P. J. Sarre, Scientific Editor.

Zhang, Director, Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, PO Box 110, Dalian, PR China Message from the Chairman of Faraday Editorial Board This summer heralds a number of changes in the ‘management’ of Faraday Transactions. Professor I. W. M. Smith retires as Chairman of Faraday Editorial Board after six years of exemplary service. Ian has overseen major (and very positive!) changes in the fortunes, the appearance and the perception of the Journal. Members of the Editorial Board had an opportunity to thank Ian personally for all his hard work after the last Board meeting; I know that I also speak for a great many others in the scientific community when I say, again, thank you Ian for all your efforts on behalf of Faraday Transactions over the past six years.It is my pleasure to have been appointed to succeed Ian as Chairman of Faraday Editorial Board. Be assured, I shall be thrilled if I can help introduce so much ‘added value’ during my tenure as Chairman! Professor H. M. Frey, another stalwart not just of Faraday Editorial Board but also of the Journals Management Committee of the Royal Society of Chemistry, also stands down this summer. Monty, too, has given generously, both of his time and his wisdom, and will be a very hard act to follow.Every cloud has a silver lining; however, and the retirements of Ian and Monty, my ‘elevation’, and the appointment of Professor A. R. Hillman (from 1 October) in succession to Dr. P. J. Sarre as Scientific Editor of Faraday Transactions-more on this later-opens the way for another injection of ‘new blood’ onto the Editorial Board of Faraday Transactions. As a result, Professors Julia Higgins and Alberto Beswick, and Drs Steven Scott and Domi- nique Langevin were all invited to serve on Faraday Editorial Board; I am delighted to be able to announce that all four were happy to accept our invitation. Their appointments will help ensure that the Board and, hopefully, through it the Transactions themselves, remain dynamic in, and responsive to, all of the major areas of physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry.I would like to highlight the appointments of Alberto and Dominique, two new Board members from Mainland Europe. Their appointment, following closely on the heels of that of Josef Holzwarth, should be seen as a very clear signal of the Board’s intention that Faraday Transactions should become firmly recognised as the major European journal in the areas of physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. I have already alluded to Rob Hillman’s appointment as the next Scientific Editor of Faraday Transactions. He will succeed Peter Sarre, who retires from office on 30th September next after five outstanding years in this role.Peter, too, will be a very hard act to follow! This is neither the time nor the place for a full appreciation of Peter’s contributions on behalf of Faraday Transactions. Suffice to say at this stage that his boundless energy, his enthusiasm, his thoroughness and his attention to detail have been absolutely crucial to the striking progress made by the Transactions during his period as Scientific Editor. Readers will not be surprised to know that more papers were received by, and published in, Faraday Transactions in 1993 than ever before, that the average time between acceptance and publication of full papers is well below 4 months (an all-time low) and that the responses to the questionnaires circulated to authors whose work has recently appeared in the Transactions are revealing a gratifyingly high level of ‘consumer satisfaction’.Credit for this very fine state of affairs must rest in large part with Peter, but he will be the first to point out that none of it would have been achieved without the sterling efforts of Dr. Bob Parker and his colleagues in the Editorial Office in Cambridge. So, what of the future? Clearly, the Transactions once again have a momentum of their own, and thus we view the future with considerable optimism. The Faraday Research Articles published to date have been very well received; this innovation is one which we will certainly continue. Similarly, we will continue to publish occasional ‘Special issues’ of the Transactions devoted to subject areas in which we would like to encourage new authors.Topics so identified for the near future include colloid chemistry and surface science. Finally, I should flag one change that is in the pipeline. With passing time the distinction between Faraday Discussions and Faraday Symposia has become increasingly blurred, to the extent that Faraday Council has taken the welcome and logical decision that all such future meetings will be Faraday Discussions (three per year). Discussions have always been published as a separate volume, whilst recent Symposia have appeared as Special Issues of the Transactions. Clearly, with the distinction removed this latter input to the Transactions will cease and all Discussions will be reported via Faraday Dis- cussions volumes. Whether you be readers, authors, or just interested observers, I and all other members of Faraday Editorial Board would be keen to receive your views on Faraday Transactions, and any suggestions you may have as to how we might further improve the service provided by the Journal. I hope to hear from you! MIKEASHFOLD July 1994

There is no page charge for papers published in Fmadq Transactiom. Research Papers Full papers contain original scientifk work that has not been published previously. However, work that has appeared in print in a short form such as a Faraday Communication or Chemical Communication is normally acceptable. Papers should be typewritten in double spacing on one side only of the paper. Four copies of text, illustrations, tables and any other matter should be sent to: The Editor, Fwaday Transactiom, The Royal Society of Chemistry, Thomas Graham House, Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge CB4 4WF, UK.Authors may, if they wish, suggest the names (With ad-dresses) of up to three possible referees. Faraday Research Articles Faraday Research Articles are occasional invited articles which are published following review. They are designed to be topi-cal articles of interest to a wide range of research scientists in the areas of Physical Chemistry, Biophysical Chemistry and Chemical Physics. Faraday Communications Faraday Communications contain novel scientific work in short form and of such importance that rapid publication is war-ranted. The total length is rigorously restricted to two printed A4 pages. The manuscript will be returned for reduction if this length is exceeded.For a communication consisting of text and ten references, with no figures, equations or tables, this corre-sponds to approximately 1600 words plus an abstract of up to 40 words. Submission of a Farday Communication can be made either to The Editor, Faraday Transactiom, The Royal Society of Chemistry, Thomas Graham House, Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge CB4 4WF, UK,or via a member of the Inter-national Advisory Editorial Board. In the latter case, the top copy of the manuscript including any figures etc., together with the name of the person to whom the communication is being submitted, should be sent simultaneously to The Editor at the Cambridge address. In order to avoid delay in publication, proofs of communi- cations are not sent to authors unless this is specifically re-quested.Administration Receipt of a paper will be acknowledged, and the paper will be given a reference number which authors are asked to quote on all their subsequent correspondence. If no such acknow-ledgement has been received after a reasonable period of time authors should check with the Editorial Office as to whether the paper or the acknowledgement has gone astray. Editorial Policy. Every paper (except communications) will be submitted to at least two referees, by whose advice Faraday Editorial Board will be guided as to its acceptability. Papers that are accepted must not be published elsewhere except by permission of the Royal Society of Chemistry.Submission of a manuscript will be regarded as an undertaking that the same material is not being considered for publication by another journal. Conditions governing acceptance are printed in Issue 1 each year and are available from the Editorial Manager. Copyright.The whole of the literary matter (including tables, figures, diagrams and photographs) in Faraday Transactiom is subject to copyright and may not be reproduced without per-mission fiom The Royal Society of Chemistry and such other owner of the copyright as may be indicated. Reprints. Fifty reprints of each paper are supplied free of charge on request. Additional reprints can be purchased if ordered at the time of publication. Details are sent to authors with the pofs of articles and with the letter of acceptance of communications.Free Copies. Any author who is publishq in Faraday Tram-actiom is entitled to a free copy of the issue in which hisher Paper appears. Notes on the Preparation of Papers 1 Manuscripts must be trped in double-line spacing, single sided on A4 paper, with margins at top, bottom and left-hand side of at least 4 cm. 2 The first page should be set out as follows: (i) Name and address of the author to whom proofs and correspondence should be sent.. (ii) Title of the paper, with capitals for the first letter of each noun and adjective only. (iii) Authors’ names, including one forename for each author. (iv) The address where the work was carried out;if this is different fiom the cunent address a footnote indicating the present address of this author should be included.Resent addresses of other authors are not normally given. (v) Abstract, prded and followed by a horizontal line, and typed in double-linespacing. 3 Suitable headings and sub-headings should be used in the main text as appropriate (except for communications in which no headings are used). References should be numbered serially in the text by means of superscript arabic numerals. 4 Bibliograghic references (not footnotes) should follow the main text and should have the following format 1 C.

Ward, Kodansha, Tokyo,1986, p. 521. Journal titles should be abbreviated according to the Chemical Abstracts ServiceSource Index (CASSI). 5 Tables should be typed on separate sheets at the end of the manuscript. 6 Diagrams should be accompanied by a separately typed set of captions. Extensive identifying lettering should be placed in the caption rather than on lines on graphs, etc. Original art-work should be supplied wherever possible. Colour photo-graphs will be accepted only when a black-and-white photograph fails to show some vital feature. iv 7 Bulk information (such as primary kinetic data, computer programs and output etc.) whi& accampanies papers published in Fur@ Transactwns may be deposited, fie of charge, with the Society’s Supplementary Publications Scheme, either at the request of the author and with the approval of the referees or on the recommendation of the referees with the approval of the author.Details are available from the Editorial Offke. 8 Molecular modelling studies should be subject to the same rigorous scientific standard required of other types of experi- ment, such that objective evaluation by independent investiga- tors is possible. Authors are therefore strongly encouraged to provide sufficient details of any computationally assisted mod-elling results they report that might assist in any such an evalu- ation. This information should include: (a) A precise description of any computex software used, in-cluding any version or revision numbers, the type of computer used and a reference to a source for the program or a published definition of the algorithm used.(b) A concise indication in a ‘Computational Details Section’ or a footnote of standard options involved such as basis sets, SCF methods, electronic states, parameter sets, charge distribu- tion schemes, symmetry, geometry optimisation methods, con- vergence criteria, cutdTs, time constants, etc. More explicit details of any non-standard use of e.g. basis sets, force-field parameters, algorithmic options, etc. should be particularly pro-vided. (c) Key stationary points in a potential surface which are es-sential to conclusions discussed in the text should be accurately characterised by reporting e.g.the calculated energy and im-portant geometrical parameters. Authors are encouraged to provide more complete information such as atom types, mole-cular coordinates and connectivity data if available for these points in the form of supplementary tables, or preferably in computer-readable form as e.g. program input data sets or archive Nes.

D. Barron (Chairman) Dr A. F. Drake Dr D. L. Andrews Professor R. E. Hester Professor A. D. Buckingham Traditional optical activity measurements such as CD are confined to the visible and near-ultraviolet spectral regions where they provide stereochemical information on chiral molecules via polarized electronic transitions. Thanks to prompting from theory and new developments in instrumentation, optical measurements are now being made in the vibrational spectrum using both infrared and Raman methods.Studies over the past decade on a large range of chiral molecules, from small organics to biological macromolecules, have demonstrated that vibrational optical activity opens up a whole new world of fundamental studies and practical applications undreamt of in the realm of conventional electronic optical activity. The meeting seeks to bring together experimentalists and theoreticians to discuss the current and future experimental possibilities and the development of theories, including ab initio computational methods, which can relate the observationls to stereochemical details.The increasing importance now being attached to molecular chirality amd solution conformation in the life sciences should also encourage the partipation of biomolecular scientists.

W. M. Smith and Dr J.R. Sodeau (Co-chairmen) Dr R. A. Cox Dr J. C. Plane Dr J. Pyle Professor F. Taylor The priority now given by national governments to the study of atmospheric science confirms that our understanding of global climate and compositional changes depends upon measurements in both the laboratory and the field. The data obtained by the experimentalists are then applied by modellers who provide the most significant input into legislative controls on pollution matters. However there have been few opportunities for laboratory and field workers along with the modelling community to attend an "interdisciplinary" discussion in which overall progress in our understanding of specific atmospheric problems is assessed. The object of this discussion is to bring together the researchers in the diverse disciplines that make up atmospheric chemistry so that their individual results and conclusions can be communicated to each other.Some of the key issues to be discussed will include: ozone balances in the atmosphere; heterogeneous processes; the interaction of chemistry and dynamics in determining atmospheric composition and change. Particular reference will be made to the input of data to global models from the use of satellite, airborne and ground-based instrumentation. Contributions are invited for consideration by the Organising Committee covering topics within the area of chemistry, dynamics and modelling in the lower and upper atmosphere.

Ross-Murphy During the last few years there has been an increase in both theoretical and experimental work on gels as new techniques have been applied to a wide range of gelling systems.Typical of these are gels formed frum polymers by both physical and chemical interactions as well as gels formed by inorganic and surfactant systems. The meeting will deal with the structure and dynamics of gels with the latter heading covering both swelling and rheological behaviour. Mixed systems such as polymer/surfactant and polymer/particle gels will also be discussed.

J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, 90(13), 1811-1817 181 1 Ab lnitio Quantum Chemistry Study of the Gas-phase Reaction of CIO with HO, David Buttar and David M. Hirst* Department of Chemistry, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK CV4 7AL The reaction of CIO with HO, has been studied using ab initio molecular orbital theory with electron correlation being taken into account by Msller-Plesset (MP) perturbation theory. Saddle-point geometries, energies and harmonic vibrationai wavenumbers have been calculated at the MP2/6-31 G** level and barrier heights at the MP4/6-311G** level. The study shows that the products and mechanism depend on which potential-energy surface the reaction occurs. If the reaction proceeds along the triplet reaction surface, ground-state HOCl ('A') and ground-state 0, (3Xg-)are formed.If the reaction takes place on the singlet reaction surface the same products are formed, but in this case the molecular oxygen is formed in a singlet state. The CIO + HO, reaction proceeds via a multi-step reaction mechanism on the singlet surface and via a direct hydrogen-abstraction mechanism on the triplet surface. The reaction of chlorine monoxide (C10) and the hydro- peroxy radical (HO,) has been studied '-*extensively because of its importance in atmospheric chemistry and its unusual rate behaviour. The reaction can proceed through a number of possible reaction channels C10 + HO, +ClOO + OH OClO + OH HOCl + 0, HClO + 0, HCl + 0, ArH (298 K)9-11 channel /kJ mol-' 1 ca.12 2 ca. 25 3 CU. -191 4 ca. 71 5 CU. -62 leading to a wide range of products. However, the reaction enthalpies indicate that channels (3) and (5) should be the principal reaction channels. The formation of ozone through channel (5) has not been detected in experimental studies of this system and this pathway is therefore thought to be of minor importance. The principal reaction channel is that leading to the formation of HOCl and 0,.This is supported by experimental observation of HOCl as a product of the C10 + HO, The formation of ClOO + OH through channel (1) is only slightly endothermic and may be a minor reaction pathway under suitable conditions. The remaining channels are too endothermic to be of importance to the C10 + HO, reaction. The C10 + HO, reaction is believed to be involved in the destruction of stratospheric ozone.The destruction cycle is a consequence of the photolysis of HOCl and is outlined below, C10 + HO, +HOCl + 0, HOCl + hv +Cl + OH Cl + 0,+ClO + 0, OH + 0, +HO, + 0, net 2 0, +3 0, This reaction scheme is thought to be particularly important in the middle and lower stratosphere. Experimental studies'-6 of the C10 + 0,H reaction have also found that the reaction displays a complicated tem-perature dependence, which is inconsistent with a simple H-atom metathesis reaction. The rate of the reaction is very fast and the experimentally measured rate constant at 298 K is about (4.5-6.5) x cm3 molecule-' s-l, and has a negative temperature dependence.The experimental results suggest that the reaction proceeds by a multi-step mech- anism, possibly via a reaction intermediate. This postulate is supported by the Arrhenius A factor determined from the experimental studies. This is found to be 4.6 x 10-l2 cm3 molecule-' s-'. The range in magnitudes of the rate constant arises from the different experimental techniques that have been employed to study this system. The concept of a multi- step reaction mechanism has been postulated by a number of author^,^^^.^-* but to date there is no experimental evidence for the existence of reaction intermediates. The study of short-lived reaction intermediates using experimental techniques is extremely difficult. However, theo- retical techniques can be used to study the possibility of the existence of such intermediates.There have been two theo- retical studies of the ClO + HO, system. Mozurkevich' has studied the reaction using RRKM theory and achieved good agreement with experimental rate parameters by assuming that the reaction proceeds by a multi-step mechanism involv- ing a weakly bound intermediate. The structures and proper- ties of the intermediates were determined from established thermochemical methods. The only ab initio theoretical study, to date, that has performed a full characterisation of reaction intermediates is the work of Toohey and Anderson.8 In this study various ab initio techniques were used to study the triplet reaction surface, under the constraint that any reaction intermediates would be formed with C, symmetry.The authors report the existence of a single saddle point that appears to connect the reactants to the products HOCl and 0,. The Arrhenius A factor derived from this work is found to be in the range 8.7 x 10-l3-5.4 x lo-', cm3 molecule-' s-', in reasonable agreement with experiment. Here we report a complete characterisation of the C10 + HO, reaction surface using second-order Mlaller-Plesset perturbation theory. In this work we have studied the singlet and triplet potential surfaces and report the structures, ener- gies and harmonic vibrational wavenumbers of various inter- mediates and transition states for the C10 + HO, reaction on both surfaces. In the calculations reported here no sym- metry constraint has been imposed.The stationary points located on each surface have been further studied using higher-order perturbation theory. ComputationalDetails Searches for minima and saddle points at the self-consistent field (SCF) level employed the restricted and unrestricted Hartree-Fock methods (RHF, UHF)l2,l3with the 6-31G** basis of Pople and co-worker~.~~*~~ To study the effect of electron correlation on the singlet and triplet potential- energy surfaces of the C10 + HO, reaction, minima and saddle-point calculations were also made using second-order Msller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2).16 All stationary points located on the singlet and triplet surfaces were charac- terized by harmonic vibrational frequency calculations.The highest level of calculation reported is fourth-order Msller-Plesset (MP4)’ 7*1 calculations using the larger 6- 311G** basis set.” The MP4 calculations include all single, double, triple and quadruple excitations. Barrier heights for the C10 + HO, reaction are reported at all levels of theory. At the highest level, MP4/6-3 1lG**, basis-set superposition error calculations have been performed using the Boys- Bernardi Although the UHF wavefunctions are not true eigen-functions of the (S2> operator through contamination by higher spin states, the largest values of (S2) for the doublet and triplet states considered here were 0.77 and 2.07, respec- tively. There is only a small deviation from the expected values of 0.75 and 2.0, indicating only minor spin con-tamination.The study of the singlet reaction surface required the struc- ture and energy of the oxygen molecule in the ‘8, state to be considered. This calculation was performed using complex orbitals at the RHF and MP2 levels with the 6-31G** basis set. The optimum bond length for this molecule was deter- mined using a non-gradient optimization routine. The results are in good agreement with previously reported results.22 Intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC)23724 calculations were performed at the MP2/6-31G** level to confirm that the transition states on each reaction surface connect with stable intermediates, reactants or products. The IRC calculations follow the minimum-energy pathway from the transition states.The initial search direction is determined from the imaginary frequency computed at the transition-state geometry. Searches were performed on both the forward and reverse sides of the potential surface with a stepsize of 0.1-0.3 a, u1I2. All calculations were performed using the GAUSSIAN 9225 and GAMESS-UK26,27 software packages on the Intel iPSC/860 and the Convex 220 at the SERC, Daresbury Laboratory, and a HP9000/735 workstation. Results The ClO + HO, reaction can proceed through two com-peting reaction pathways. The first involves the direct attack on the ooHbond of HO, by the singly occupied n* (ClO) orbital. The ground-state configuration for the HO, molecule 5a’),( la“)2(6a’)2(7a’)2(2a’’)1.is (1 a’)2(2a’)2(3a’)2(4a’)2( The oOH orbital of HO, corresponds to the doubly occupied, in plane, 7a’ orbital.The interaction of these orbitals results in the for- mation of a planar, slightly bent, triplet intermediate. The transition state formed from this interaction decomposes to form the ground-state products HOCl + O,, as studied pre- viously by Toohey and Anderson.8 The second reaction pathway arises from the interaction of the singly occupied 2a“ orbital of HO,, which is predominantly a n*(02) orbital, with the singly occupied n*(ClO) orbital. This pathway results in the formation of a singlet intermediate, which is believed to be entropically unfavourable.8 Decomposition of the singlet intermediate leads to the formation of HOCl + 0,.However, due to spin conservation rules, one of the products is formed in an excited state. Fig. 1 shows the orbital interactions for both reactions considered here. Here we present a comprehensive ab initio study of the singlet and triplet potential surfaces for the reaction of C10 with HO,. The results discussed are concerned with the for- J. CHEM. SOC.

Note that all possible reaction channels discussed previously were considered, but at the level of theory employed here only reaction channel (3) was found to be significant. There was no evidence, in this computational study, of the formation of any other products through the other possible reaction channels.Triplet Surface The calculated geometries, energies and harmonic vibrational wavenumbers of the reactants and products considered in this work are presented in Table 1. This table lists the results from calculations performed at the UHF/6-31G** and MP2/ 6-31G** levels. Also reported are results of single-point MPqSDTQ)/6-311G** calculations at the MP2 optimized geometries. The highest level of calculation reported for the singlet oxygen species is a MP2/6-3 1G** optimization. MP4 calculations on this species were not possible due to the SCF calculation requiring the use of complex orbitals. The MP4 results will be used later to compute ab initio barrier heights for the C10 + HO, reaction.The enthalpy of reaction for the ClO + HO, -,HOCl + 0, reaction under consideration is calculated, at the MP4/6-311G** level, to be ArH (0 K) = -241 kJ mol-I. This value is 50 kJ mol-’ larger than the experimental value of A,H (298 K) = -191 kJ mol-’. The computed heat of reaction could be improved by using higher levels of theory. Comparison of the experimental and calculated heat of reaction indicates that the C10 + HO, reaction surface is reasonably described at the MP4/6-311G** level. Table 2 summarises the results of the study of the triplet potential surface at the UHF/6-31G** and MP2/6- 3 1G** levels. The harmonic vibrational wavenumbers used to characterize the stationary points at the MP2/6-31G** level are tabulated in Table 3.This table also reports the har- monic vibrational wavenumbers for stationary points located on the singlet reaction surface. These results will be discussed in the next section. As discussed by Toohey and Anderson,* for the C10 + HO, reaction the UHF/6-31G** results provide a poor representation of the true MP2 saddle points. The results in Table 2 show that at the MP2 level the OH bond of the HO, species in transition state 1 is shorter than the bond length reported at the UHF level. Similarly the HO(3) bond length in the transition state is longer at the MP2 level than at the UHF level, indicating the transition state, at the MP2 level, occurs earlier in the reaction channel. The UHF transition state is found to occur later in the reaction channel, as a con- sequence of the UHF calculation underestimating the reac- tion exothermicity. These results follow the Hammond postulate2’ that relates the position of the transition state to the enthalpic change of the reaction.These results show the importance of using a correlated method to determine the J.

At the MP2 level of theory employed here no stationary point could be located on this region of the triplet surface. This could be a consequence of the intermediate species being formed with a negligible activation barrier. This abinitio study of the triplet reaction surface, supports and reproduces the results of Toohey and Anderson.* These results are reported here in order to facilitate comparison with the singlet reaction surface discussed in the next section.In both studies the C10 + HO, reaction on the triplet poten- tial surface is found to proceed through direct attack of the C10 radical on the OH bond of the HO, radical. This reac- tion leads to the formation of ground-state HOCl and 0, through a direct hydrogen-abstraction mechanism. Singlet Surface Here we report the first abinitio study of the singlet potential surface for the C10 + HO, reaction. The calculated geom- etries and energies of the stationary points located on the singlet surface are tabulated in Table 4. The harmonic vibra- tional wavenumbers computed at the MP2/6-3 1G** level to characterize the stationary points on the singlet surface are listed in Table 3. The MP2 singlet surface is more complex than the RHF/6- 31G** surface and the corresponding MP2 triplet surface.Unlike the triplet surface, where the MP2 stationary points were found to be formed earlier in the reaction channel than the corresponding UHF stationary points, the MP2 station-ary points on the singlet potential surface appear to occur later in the reaction channel than the corresponding RHF stationary points. This result and the large number of station- ary points reported in Table 4 indicate that the C10 + HO, reaction on the singlet surface occurs via a different mech- anism from that described for the triplet reaction surface. Eleven stationary points have been located and characterized on the singlet surface. However, IRC calculations indicate that stationary points 1, 4, 5 and 6 are not involved in the C10 + HO, reaction.These stationary points correspond to transition states arising from internal rotation in the reaction intermediates. Stationary point 1 corresponds to a saddle point arising from rotation about the central ClO-00H bond. The barrier to internal rotation about this bond is computed, at the MP2 level, to be ca. 20 kJ mol-l. The remaining rotational isomers, points 4, 5 and 6, correspond to saddle points that arise from rotation about the C100-OH bond. The barrier to internal rotation about this bond is similar in magnitude to the barrier about the C10-00H bond. Fig. 2 plots the relative energies of the stationary points, with respect to the reactants, against the reaction coordinate. The stationary points corresponding to rotational saddle points have been omitted for reasons of clarity.The figure also indicates the stationary points that are found to be con- 50/ J. CHEM. SOC.

The figure shows that the ClO + HO, reaction on the singlet surface involves the formation of stable reaction intermediates. The reaction path shown in Fig. 3 also indicates that the reaction occurs via a multi-step reaction mechanism. The principal reaction channel on the singlet surface con- nects the local minima, points 8 and 9, to the saddle points 10,7 and 11.In Fig. 2, stationary point 10 does not appear to be a saddle point as it is lower in energy than the reactants to which it is connected. However, the harmonic vibrational wavenumbers given in Table 3 characterize stationary point 10 as a saddle point and the IRC calculation that connects point 10 to point 9 on the singlet reaction surface also shows that point 10 breaks down, in the reverse direction, to form the reactants C10 + HO,. This discrepancy in the energies probably arises from the potential surface not being corrected for the effects of zero-point vibrational energy and basis-set superposition error. The reaction path shown in Fig. 2 is shown schematically in Fig. 3. This reaction scheme shows that the reaction initially involves the formation of a loosely bound species, with the reactants separated by 2.7 A.The remaining stages involve a shortening of the 0(2)0(3) bond length and a migration of the H atom from the HO, species to the C10 radical.

This shortening of the C1-0(1) dis-tance indicates that the Cl atom of C10 is involved in this reaction mechanism. The reaction scheme shown in Fig. 3 is a four-centre addition of HO, to C10, followed by hydrogen- atom migration leading to the formation of HOCl + 0,.Two additional stationary points have been located on the singlet surface. Point 3 corresponds to a loosely bound saddle point and point 2 corresponds to a tightly bound transition state. Scheme 2 shows that these stationary points arise from a two-centre addition of C10 to HO,. The Cl-0(2) distance in structures 2 and 3 is 4.1 and 3.2 A, respectively, indicating that in this case the C1 atom of C10 is not involved in the formation of a reaction transition state. From IRC calcu- lations saddle point 2 was found to be connected to the pro- ducts HOCl + 0, in the forward direction and to intermediate 8 in the reverse direction. At the level of theory employed here no stationary point could be located in the reverse direction from saddle point 3.However, point 3 was found to be connected to intermediate 8 in the forward direc- tion. It is believed that saddle points 2 and 3 are involved in an H-atom migration mechanism as discussed above. 3 2 Scheme 2 The singlet surface presented here shows that there are two possible reaction pathways leading to the formation of HOCl + 0,. JRC calculations were performed using saddle points 2 and 11 as starting points. These saddle points were found to decompose to form HOCl + 0,. At the final point of the IRC calculation the products are found to be separated by ca. 3 A and the OH and C10 bond lengths of HOCl were found to be about 0.97 and 1.71 A, respectively. The molecular oxygen species was found to have an internuclear distance of about 1.27 A.Comparison of these values with those given in Table 1 indicate that HOCl is formed in the ground state and that molecular oxygen is formed as a singlet. This conclusion is supported by the results of the IRC calculation on the triplet reaction surface, where the internuclear distance of the 0, product was found to be considerably shorter indicating the formation of the more stable, ground-state, triplet 0,. Discussion The results reported in the previous sections show that the C10 + HO, reaction can take place on the triplet and singlet reaction surfaces. The reaction energies, at the MP4/6-311G** level, for the triplet and singlet surfaces are -241 and -174 kJ mol-', respectively. The reaction energy for the singlet surface is an estimate obtained by assuming that the electron correlation recovered for singlet 0, on going from the MP2 to the MP4 levels is similar to that recovered for triplet 0,.The C10 + HO, reaction on both the triplet and singlet reaction surfaces is computed to be exothermic and energetically favourable. The energies reported in Tables 2 and 4 show that the energies of the two surfaces are very similar. The lowest energy, intermediate species are formed on the singlet surface. This indicates that on the singlet surface there is the possi- bility that the C10 + HO, reaction involves the formation of J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, VOL. 90 relatively long-lived intermediates. The barrier heights, with respect to the reactants, for the stationary points located on each surface are given in Table 5.The barrier heights are reported at the MP2/6-31G** and MP4/6-311G** levels. The MP4 results have been corrected for zero-point vibrational and basis-set superposition error effects. The barrier heights at this level of theory tend to overestimate the true barrier height^.^'.^' Brown and Truhlar have shown that even large- scale configuration interaction calculations can overestimate barrier heights by several kcal mol-'.3' For the singlet reac- tion surface the corrected barrier heights reported in Table 5 are slightly higher, less negative, than those shown in Fig. 2. However, the structure of the reaction surface is not dramati- cally altered from that shown in Fig.2 and these results support the reaction mechanism discussed in the previous section. The barrier height between stationary points 9 and 7 on the singlet surface is 112 kJ mol-', indicating that inter- mediate species 9 may be relatively long-lived. The corrected barrier heights for the triplet surface are slightly higher than those computed at the MP2 level. The MP4 results indicate that on the triplet reaction surface the CIO + HO, reaction proceeds with a negligible or small activation energy. These results indicate that the observed negative tem-perature dependence of the ClO + HO, rate constant cannot be explained by considering only the direct reaction mech- anism that takes place on the triplet reaction surface. Stimp- fle et al.' found that the experimental rate constant could be represented by the rate expression, k, = 3.3 x exp(-850/T) + 4.5 x lo-" (T/300)-3.7 cm3 molecule-' s-'.This expression shows that the Arrhenius plot of the C10 + HO, reaction is strongly curved and that at high tem- peratures the activation energy tends to zero. This result sug- gests that at high temperatures the triplet reaction surface is dominant, leading to the formation of ground-state HOCl + 0,. At low temperatures the Arrhenius plot displays a strong negative temperature dependence, indicating the influ- ence of a multi-step reaction mechanism. Therefore at low temperatures the singlet reaction surface must play an impor- tant role in the C10 + HO, reaction.Dynamics calculations will determine whether these initial conclusions are valid for the C10 + HO, reaction. However, to perform such calcu- lations accurately the energies of the stationary points pre- sented here will have to be recalculated at a higher order of theory. The singlet reaction mechanism results in a decrease in the formation of triplet molecular oxygen and a corresponding increase in the formation of singlet molecular oxygen. The role of singlet molecular oxygen, a relatively long-lived excited state of O,, in the atmosphere has been explored by Table 5 Barrier heights (kJ mol-') corrected stationary barrier point AEa AEb BSSE ZPVE' /kJ mol-' singlet surface 2 -20.3 13.1 25.3 -9.0 29.4 3 -107.3 -73.2 14.6 2.8 -55.8 7 11.5 70.1 19.8 -6.4 83.5 8 -129.6 -56.6 20.3 5.7 -30.6 9 -89.6 -48.0 17.0 2.2 -28.8 10 -85.6 -62.3 12.5 -0.4 -50.2 11 -72.3 -15.2 37.9 -9.1 13.6 triplet surface 1 -6.8 6.3 27.3 19.3 52.9 2 -23.9 -15.0 7.9 -2.1 -9.2 a MP2/6-31G** barrier heights.MP4/6-311G** barrier heights.'Determined at the MP2/6-31G** level.

J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, 90(13), 1819-1829 Mechanism of Atmospheric Oxidation of 1,I ,I ,2=Tetrafluoroethane (HFC 134a) Oliver V. Rattigan,* David M. Rowley, Oliver Wild and Roderic L. Jones Centre for Atmospheric Science, Department of Chemistry, University of Cambridge, Lensfieid Road, Cambridge,UK CB2 IEW R. Anthony Cox NERC, Polaris House, North Star Avenue, Swindon, UK SN2 IEU The chlorine-initiated photooxidation of hydrofluorocarbon 134a (CF,CH,F) has been studied in the temperature range 235-318 K and at 1 atm total pressure using UV absorption. Trifluoroacetyl fluoride [CF,C(O)F] and formyl fluoride [HC(O)F] were observed as the major products. IR analysis of the reaction mixture also showed car- bony1 fluoride [C(O)F,] as a product. By measurement of the yields of HC(0)F from the photooxidation as a function of [O,] and temperature, the rate of the unimolecular decomposition of the oxy radical, CF,CHFO, reaction (5),was determined relative to its reaction with O,, reaction (4): CF,CHFO + 0, +CF,C(O)F + HO, (4) CF3CHF0+CF3 + HC(0)F (5) The results were treated using both an arithmetic derivation and numerical integration with a detailed reaction scheme, Inclusion of other recently published kinetic data leads to the following recommended rate expression for reaction (5)at 1 atm k, = 7.4 x 10" exp[( -4720 f220)/77 s-' The errors are la.The observation of enhanced product yields in the present work is attributed to the reaction of the CF,O radical with HFC 134a leading to further peroxy radical formation.The results have been incorporated into a 20 atmospheric model to assess the environmental implications of HFC 134a release in the troposphere. It is now widely accepted that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are directly responsible for the increasing levels of strato- spheric chlorine observed over the past decade.' This has in turn led to large losses of stratospheric ozone, particularly over the polar regions (see, e.g. ref. 2). Hydro-chlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) have been proposed as replacements for CFCs. These compounds contain one or more carbon-hydrogen bonds and are therefore susceptible to attack by the hydroxy radical in the troposphere leading to shorter atmospheric lifetime^.^ These shorter lifetimes, coupled with reduced chlorine substi- tution, lead to a lower release of chlorine in the stratosphere and hence a lower ozone-depletion potential.In order to assess the environmental impact of HCFC and HFC release it is necessary to quantify the nature and yield of the products from atmospheric oxidation. Although the reaction of the hydroxy radical with these compounds has been the subject of several the detailed mechanis- tic and kinetic pathways are somewhat uncertain. HFC 134a (CF,CH,F) is a proposed replacement for dichlorodifluoromethane (CFC-12) which is widely used as a refrigerant and in air-conditioning systems. In the tropo- sphere OH-initiated oxidation of HFC 134a leads to the for- mation of the peroxy radical CF,CHFO, via the following reactions CF,CH,F + OH -,CF,CHF + H,O (1) CF3CHF+ 0, + M +CF,CHFO, + M (2) The reaction of CF3CHF0, with NO [reaction (3)] has been found to be and is expected to be a major loss reac- tion for the peroxy radical for most situations in the tropo- sphere CF,CHFO, + NO -+ CF,CHFO + NO, (3) Subsequently, CF,CHFO radicals formed in reaction (3) may either react with 0, [reaction (4)] or undergo unimolecular decomposition [reaction (5)] CF,CHFO + 0, -+ CF,C(O)F + HO, (4) CF,CHFO +CF, + HC(0)F (5) The primary product distribution from the oxidation of HFC 134a therefore depends on the relative rates of reactions (4) and (5).We have recently measured the UV spectra and absorption cross-sections, 0, for CF,C(O)F and HC(0)F9-" and in the present work we have used this information to determine the yields of these products in the chlorine photosensitised oxida- tion of HFC 134a by UV spectroscopy.Measurement of the yields as a function of [O,] and temperature gave informa- tion on the reaction mechanism and allowed a determination of the rate constant ratio k,/k, in the temperature range 235- 318 K. During the course of this work a number of other studies of the photooxidation of HFC 134a have been carried out and the combination of these results has greatly aided in the understanding of the complex reaction mechanism and determination of the kinetic parameters. Wallington et a1.l' studied the chlorine-initiated photooxi- dation of HFC 134a over the temperature range 261-353 K and at pressures of 15-5650 Torr using product analysis with FTIR.An expression for k,/k, of 1.58 x exp(3600/T) cm3 molecule-' s-' was reported at 2 atm and a strong pres- sure dependence below 1 atm was found due to fall-off in the 1820 rate of the unimolecular reaction (5).Tuazon and Atkinson', have also studied the photooxidation using FTIR and their branching ratio of k,/k, = 3.2 x exp(3510/T) over the range 273-320 K and 1 atm pressure is in excellent agree- ment. Edney and Driscoll'3 have reported a similar study at room temperature with results that are broadly consistent. Maricq and Szente', have recently reported a flash pho- tolysis UV absorption kinetics study of HFC 134a photooxi- dation.Diode array spectroscopy was used to obtain time-resolved spectroscopic information of the radicals CF,CHFO and CF3CHF0,. They determined the rate of the unimolecular decomposition of the CF,CHFO radical, k, = 3.7 x lo7 exp(-2200/T) s-' over the temperature range 210-372 K and at 250 Torr, from the time dependence of growth and decay of an absorption assigned to CF,CHFO. Zellner et ~1.'~studied the pulsed laser photolysis of HFC 1 34a-C1,-NO-02 mixtures with time-resolved measurement of [OH] and [NO,] using optical methods. By simultaneous fitting to the NO, and OH profiles, they were able to deter- mine values for k,, k, and k, of (1.7 f0.6) x lo-', cm3 molecule-' s-', (2.7 f0.6) x lo-', cm3 molecule-' s-' and (1.8 f0.4) x lo4 s-', respectively, at 295 K and 38 Torr total pressure.An absolute uncertainty of a factor of two was reported for the individual values of k, and k, , but the ratio k,/k, was well determined. There is considerable uncertainty about the fate of the CF, radical produced in reaction (5) and its effect on the kinetics and products in the system. Under the conditions employed in this work, CF, is likely to form CF302 radicals by the addition of 0,. The self- and cross-reactions of this peroxy radical lead to CF30.16317Good evidence has also been reported" for the formation of trioxide species such as CF,O,CF,, formed in the reaction of CF30 with CF,O,, although these substances are unlikely to be formed in the atmosphere in view of the low radical concentrations.Sehes- ted and Wallington found evidence that CF,O reacts with CF,CHFO, to form a trioxide which is less stable than CF,O,CF, ." Recent studies have also shown that the rate constant for the reaction of the CF,O radical in H-atom abstraction from hydrocarbons is rapid, with room-temperature rate coeffi- cients similar to those for OH Sehested and Wallington found that CF,O reacts with HFC 134a to form CF,OI-I which decomposes to give COF, and HF." It seems likely that CF,OH formation is the fate of CF,O in the tro- posphere. In the present work the relative importance of the thermal decomposition of CF,CHFO compared to its reaction with 0, has been computed using a 2D atmospheric model2, The fate of the product CF,C(O)F in the atmosphere is also dis- cussed.Experimental The dual-beam diode array spectroscopy system used in this study has been described in detail previo~sly.~~ A 1 m long jacketed quartz cell connected to a standard greaseless vacuum system was used as the reaction vessel. The cell was thermostatted at 235-318 K using flowing ethanol, and evac- uated dual-window assemblies prevented frosting of the optical faces at low temperatures. Four interchangeable pho- tolysis lamps were mounted adjacent and parallel to the cell. In the present study Philips TL/09 lamps of spectral output in the range 300-400 nm were used. The source of UV for absorption measurements was a deu- terium lamp (30W, Hamamatsu L 1636) collimated output from which was passed through a beam splitter (Oriel Scien- tific, model 78150) producing two beams (reference and J. CHEM.SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, VOL. 90 sample) which were collected in optical fibre couplers (Oriel Scientific model 77800) either directly (reference) or after passage longitudinally through the cell (sample). These two beams were then resolved and imaged by a 275 mm Czerny- Turner spectrograph, at a spectral resolution of 1.2 nm, separately onto two 512 channel unintensified silicon diode arrays (Reticon). The spectrograph and detector were con- trolled by a microcomputer (Dell 316SX) and software pack- ages (Spectroscopy Instruments Ltd.) were used for linearisation of the wavelength scale, for background subtrac- tion and averaging of the data and for calculation of the absorbance using the reference spectrum to correct for changes in the source lamp intensity.Despite this correction, however, the main limitation in absorbance measurements was baseline drift, attributed to inhomogeneities in the source output affecting the reference and sample beams differently. This limited the precision of measurements to f0.0005 absorbance units. CF,CH,F (99.8%) was obtained from ICI Chemicals and Polymers Ltd. and CF,C(O)F (97%) was obtained from Flu- orochem. Both samples were purified by trap-to-trap distilla- tion prior to use. Research grade samples of C1, (5% in N,), 0, and N, obtained from BOC were used without further purification. Formyl fluoride was prepared by the reaction of formic acid with benzoyl chloride using dry KHF, at 333 K.,, The formyl fluoride was first purified by passing through a trap at 255 K to remove benzoyl chloride vapours and then trapped at 78 K.Several successive distillations of the formyl fluoride were carried out. Results Reference UV absorption spectra of pure samples of CF,C(O)F and HC(0)F were recorded over a range of condi-tions, prior to the photooxidation study.'*'' Example spectra are shown in Fig. 1. The absorption cross-section for CF,C(O)F was 13.8 x lop2' cm2 molecule-' at the maximum, 214 nm, and was found to have a small tem- perature dependence.' For HC(0)F the cross-section at 230 nm was 6.85 x lo-,' cm2 molecule-', using a resolution of 1.2 nm (FWHM), in good agreement with the results of Gid- dings and Innes.26 The absorption cross-section was found to be independent of temperature in the range 233-318 K.IR spectra of the two main products were also recorded, in order to confirm their purity. For the photooxidation study, mixtures of CF,CH,F (8-12 Torr), Cl,, (1 Torr, 5% in N,) and 0, (20-730 Torr) were made up to a total pressure of 760 Torr using N, (17-731 Torr) and pre-mixed in the dark for several hours. Irradiation in the wavelength range 300-400 nm was then used to drive the C1-atom-initiated photooxidation of the hydro-fluorocarbon and at regular intervals prior to and during this photolysis, UV spectra of the reaction mixture were recorded.Fig. 2 shows three sequential spectra taken following 11 1, 171 and 243 s of irradiation. As can be seen from these spectra, there is a build-up of absorption around 230 nm, attributable to product formation and a reduction of absorption around 300 nm, attributable to chlorine consumption, with increas- ing irradiation time. Spectral stripping routines were applied to the sequential spectra for the identification and quantification of products formed during the photooxidation. Reference spectra re-ported above were used, allowing for the temperature depen- dence of the CF,C(O)F spectrum. However, owing to the very weak UV absorption of HFC 134a in the wavelength range used in this study, consumption of the hydro-fluorocarbon could not be monitored. Yields of the two main J.CHEM. SOC.

Chlorine cross-sections were taken from the current NASA evaluation.' A graph of product formation against chlorine consumption gave the 'chlorine based' yield as the gradient, and the small non-zero intercept, where present, was attributed to differen-tial baseline shifting of the sample and reference beams and neglected.Errors on individual yields were taken from these graphs and combined with a +_5% uncertainty in the cross- sections. Typically, this resulted in a total error in the yield of 0.12 1 1 1 A 0.0 ' .

Following spectral stripping of Cl,, HC(0)F and CF,C(O)F, the baseline of UV absorption showed no addi- tional significant absorbance. The photooxidation study was carried out at four experi- mental temperatures in the range 235-318 K, and at a range of oxygen partial pressures. This range of oxygen pressures used at each experimental temperature was chosen such that comparable and therefore relatively easily measurable con- centrations of the two main products were obtained.Chlorine based yields of HC(0)F and CF,C(O)F obtained are shown in Table 1. Not all spectra were analysed for the CF,C(O)F yield, however, since this quantity proved to be both difficult to ascertain and of limited use in extracting branching ratios. The problem is discussed further below. In addition to the UV yield analysis, qualitative experi- ments to determine the composition of the reaction mixture following photolysis were carried out using IR spectroscopy. A spectrum of a typical photolysed mixture of HFC 134a, Cl,, 0,and N, is shown in Fig.3. In addition to the major products, absorptions attributable to COF, , HF and SiF, were observed. Discussion In the photooxidation study, the C1-atom-initiated formation of peroxy radicals, CF,CHFO,, in the absence of NO, leads to the self-reaction CF,CHFO, + CF,CHFO, +2CF,CHFO + 0, (6a) -,CF,CHFOH + CF,C(O)F + 0, (6b) This reaction provides a convenient way of studying the reac- tion of the oxy radical in the absence of chain processes initi-ated by the presence of NO in the system. Oxy radicals formed in the non-terminating step (6a) then either react further with 0, [reaction (4)] or unimolecularly decompose [reaction (5)J The final product distribution reflects this branching.The basic mechanism for the photooxidation, in the absence of NO, is illustrated diagrammatically in Fig. 4.

For CF, radicals, the chemistry is somewhat more complex. The radicals are likely to combine rapidly with oxygen to form CF302 radicals, which then undergo self- and cross-reactions with all other RO, type radicals present. A number of these reactions are expected to give rise to CF,O and, as has been recently these species react ana- logously to C1 atoms in hydrogen abstraction from hydrocar- bons. Thus, in the excess of HFC 134a used in these experiments, the CF,O radicals regenerate CF,CHFO, rad-icals via reactions (8) and (2), in this case without any con- comitant C1, consumption.The chemistry of the CF, radical is therefore simplified for the purposes of this model. It is assumed that, apart from the regeneration of CF,CHFO,, no other effect on the measured product distribution arises: 2xa(l -fi)CF, O2 2x41 -P)CF,O, CF302IR02 t 2x41 -B)OCF,O 2xa(l -p)6CF3O CF3CHzF excess 2x41 -P)BCF,OH+ 2xa(l -B)BCF,CHF (8) 2x41 -/?)6CF,CHF 02excess * 2xa( 1 -B)6CF3CHF0, (2) A further term, 0, is therefore defined here as the fractional efficiency of production of CF,O radicals from CF, . Sehested and Wallingt~n'~ have shown that CF,O radicals react with HFC 134a in this photooxidation and assign an IR absorption feature to CF,OH.The CF,OH is observed to decay slowly in the dark, giving C(0)F2 and HF. These pro- ducts were also identified in the IR spectrum of the pho- tolysed mixture from this study see Fig. 3. Furthermore, the observation of SiF, in this study presumably arises from the hetergeneous reaction of HF on the quartz cell walls. A chain reaction is therefore taking place following the ini- tiation of reaction by dissociation of chlorine, whereby both products CF,C(O)F and HC(0)F are formed and CF,CHFO, is regenerated. However, since only a fractional regeneration of the peroxy radical takes place, the chain length of this process is limited. The total amount of CF,CHFO, reacting, t(RO,), following initiation by disso- ciation of a nominal number, n, of C1, molecules can there- fore be expressed as the sum of a geometric series of the form a, ar, ar2, ar3, ..., where r is the fractional regeneration of CF,CHFO, and convergence is defined by r c 1.This sum is given by t(R0,) = a/(1 -r). The total yield of a given product, y(prod), can then be expressed as a fraction,f, of this total RO, reacting, divided by the nominal chlorine concen- tration considered to initiate reaction. Thus Y(PW =fCt(ROz)l/n wherefand t(R0,) are defined in terms of a and B. Solving in this way for the yield of the HC(0)F leads to HC(0)F yield = [2a(l -B)]/[1 -a8 -q?(1 + O)] Substituting for p in terms of k,/k, then gives the following linear relationship l/YCHW)FI = C(1 + a)/2QIC021(k4/k5)+ "1 -4/2a1 Plots of l/y[HC(O)F] us.LO,] for data at each experimen- tal temperature are presented in Fig. 5, and show reasonable linearity.

[O,] at (a)293, (b) 235, (c) 273 and (d)318 K 8 increases almost linearly with temperature. The efficiency of regeneration of RO, radicals from CF, is therefore enhanced at higher temperatures. Thus, given that an excess of HFC 134a and oxygen was always present in these experi- ments, this can be attributed to an increased conversion of CF, into CF,O radicals at higher temperatures, presumably resulting from both an increased rate of the CF302 self- reaction relative to CF302 +RO, and a higher branching ratio for CF,O formation in the CF302+RO, cross-reactions.A similar approach was taken to try to quantify the CF,C(O)F yield in terms of a and fi. However, unlike HC(O)F, this compound is formed in small amounts in a number of different channels in the photooxidation of HFC 134a. The sensitivity of the yield to changes in a and fi is consequently reduced. Furthermore, because the apparent experimental yields of CF,C(O)F could be erroneous because of the presence of similar absorbing species, as discussed below, no meaningful estimates of branching ratios could be produced from this yield. lo-'*kj 10-21""1"1"'1'1 I'II"'I 1"""" 3.c 3.5 4.0 4.5 lo3 KIT Fig.6 kJk, deduced from arithmetic analysis (0)and computer simulation (0)of the product yields expressed in Arrhenius form In conclusion, the preliminary analysis of yields to give estimates of the branching ratio for the CF,CHFO radical reaction provides a useful indication of the likely chemistry involved in the HFC 134a photooxidation. The observed yields of HC(0)F confirm the presence of a chain reaction regenerating CF,CHFO, without chlorine consumption. Kinetic Modelling In order to provide more- exact- kinetic parameters for the chlorine-initiated photooxidation of HFC 134a, in particular the branching ratio for the reactions of the CF,CHFO radical, a computer simulation of the experimental system was carried out using numerical integration.The kinetic model used was based on the reaction mechanism shown in Table 2, together with the source references for the rate coeffi- cients. In order to define the efficiency of regeneration of CF,CHFO, radicals, 8, the degradation of the CF, radical produced in reaction (4) is elaborated in some detail. The degradation chemistry is in accordance with the product analysis work of Sehested and Wallingt~n'~ and the dis- covery in the present work of enhanced product yields attrib- uted to secondary attack on HFC 134a by the CF,O radical formed from CF302. The rate coefficients for the self- and cross-reactions of the peroxy radicals CF,O, and CF,CHFO, are taken from the recent direct kinetic studies of Maricq and Szente16 and from Nielsen et aI.17 The tem- perature dependence of the branching ratio for the formation of radical (CF,CHFO) and molecular products [CF,C(O)F +CF,CFHOH] from the CF,CHFO, self-reaction is taken from the work of Wallington et al." The same branching ratio was assumed for the cross-reaction of CF,O, and CF,CHFO, .The model also contained the newly discovered reaction of CF,O with peroxy to form stable trioxides, CF,O,R (R =CF, and CF,CHF). Rate coefficients for the formation and decomposition of the trioxides were taken from Sehested and Wallington." The temperature depen- dence of the decomposition of CF,O,CHFCF, was based on J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, VOL.90 the 295 K value of k = 2.7 x s-' and an assumed A factor of lo', s-'; this gave an activation energy of 99 kJ mol-'. Preliminary results from Sidebottom2' and Chen et a!.'' using a relative rate technique, and Zellner et using a flash photolysis-LIF method, have shown that the reactivity of CF30 in H-abstraction from hydrocarbons is comparable to that for OH radicals. Sehested and Wallington'' have shown that the primary product of the reaction of CF30 with HFC 134a is CF30H which decomposes heterogeneously to C(O)F, and HF. The rate coefficient for the reaction of CF,O with HFC 134a is based on the 295 K value of k =(1.1 -t 0.7) x lo-', cm3 molecule-' s-' determined by these workers, and an assumed A factor of 1 x lo-', cm3 molecule-'s-'. The rate coefficient for the reaction of C1 atoms with HFC 134a at 298 K, k = 1.4 x lo-'' cm3 molecule-' s-', is well establi~hed.~~~~~The temperature dependence is based on an assumed A factor of 1.2 x lo-', cm3 molecule-' s-'.The secondary removal of HC(0)F by reaction with C1 and CF30 was also included in the reaction scheme. The rate coefficients for the reaction of CF30 with HC(0)F were assumed to be the same as for CF30 with HFC 134a. The rate coefficient for C1 + HC(0)F at 295 K has been determined by Wall- ington et d.," k = 2.0 x lo-'' cm3 molecule-' s-'. The temperature dependence is based on an assumed A factor of 1.0 x lo-', cm3 molecule-' s-'. Using these rate coeffi- cients, the calculated secondary loss of HC(0)F was very small at the extent of reaction of HFC 134a used in the experiments. This was in accordance with the observations.The expression for the temperature dependence of the rate coefficient for the reaction of CF3CHF0 with 0, is based on the room-temperature value, determined by Zellner et a/.,' k, = 2.7 x lo-'' em3 molecule-' s-', and an A factor of 6.0 x lo-', cm3 molecule-' s-', equal to that recommended for the C,H,O + 0, reaction6 -a The unknown rate coefficient, k, (unimolecular decomposi- tion of CF,CHFO) and RCI2(the rate of Cl, photolysis) were obtained by fitting computer-generated concentration-time data for Cl,, HC(O)F, CF,C(O)F and other products, to experimental data obtained in 16 experiments covering a range of temperatures and 0, partial pressures.The kinetic equations were integrated using the FACSIMILE pr~gram,~' which contained an optimization routine for fitting unknown parameters to experimental data, using a non-linear least- squares criterion. In exploratory experiments it was found that the computed yields of CF,C(O)F were always substantially smaller than the experimentally determined yields, when values of k, and RC12were adjusted to fit the HC(0)F and C1, concentrations. This observation was consistent with results from the arith- metic analysis of yields and was therefore attributed to an experimental overestimation of the CF,C(O)F yield rather than a problem with the analyses. Such an erroneous obser- vation could arise as a result of further UV absorptions underlying the smooth CF,C(O)F spectrum.A number of candidates for these products exist, of which hydroperoxides (CF,CHFOOH, CF300H, H,O,) showing broad-band absorption in the UV region and trioxides (CF303CF,, CF,O,CHFCF,), for which no UV spectra have been re-ported, are strong possibilities. Interestingly, adding the mod- elled hydroperoxide products to the modelled CF,C(O)F yield significantly improved the fit to the experimental data, as shown in Fig. 7. However, because of this uncertainty, only HC(0)F and C1, experimental data were used to determine Rc12and k, . The effect of varying the branching ratio for the cross-reaction of CF,O, and CF,CHF02 was also tested since the amount of the molecular channel in this reaction influences the fraction of CF, radicals forming CF30, and hence the regeneration of CF3CHF0, ,i.e.the regeneration efficiency 6.

HC(0)F yields increased as the branching ratio for formation of molecular products from this reaction increased. 8 and hence k, were also dependent on the relative values of the rate constants for the CF302 and the CF30 reactions, e.g.hydroperoxide and trioxide formation. Fig. 7 illustrates some of the computed and experimental concentration-time curves. Good fits to the experimental data for HC(0)F and C1, were obtained in all experiments and the values of RCll and k, were well and independently determined, except at 318 K and low 0, where the corre- lation coefficient for the fitted parameters reached 0.88. Table 4 summarizes the fitted values obtained at four temperatures for RC,2and k,, together with the values of 8, obtained from the ratio of the calculated yields of CF,OH from reactions (8), (14) and (15) and HC(0)F from reaction (5). The uncer- tainties are la values obtained from averaging four experi- ments at each temperature.The values of k,/k, obtained from the simulation are plotted in Fig. 6, together with the data from the arithmetic analysis. The agreement between the values of the ratios obtained from the two methods is good, and both data sets indicate possible curvature in the Arrhenius plot. The unweighted fit to the ratio k,/k, from the simulation gives k,/k, = 9.37 x exp(2960 & 620/T) cm3 molecule-' and a fit to results obtained from both analyses gives k,/k, = 1.05 x exp(2910 & 310/T) cm3 molecule-' The errors are la. Discussion of Kinetic Parameters Expressions for the temperature dependence of the relative rate of the decomposition of CF,CHFO compared to the reaction with 0, have been reported by Wallington et d." and by Tuazon and Atkinson', from data in the range 261-353 K and 273-320 K, respectively.In order to compare results for the unimolecular decomposition, k, was calculated in each case using the expression k, = 6.0 x lo-', exp(-925/T) cm3 molecule- s-' as used for the reference reaction in this study.

The determination of Tuazon and Atkinson', is based on measurements of CF,C(O)F formation, assuming that this product is produced only in reactions (4) and (64. Other potential sources of this product exist, however, e.g. the HO,+ CF3CHF0, reaction, which could lead to an underesti- mation of the value of k, relative to k,. Wallington et al." also used the CF,C(O)F yields to determine k,/k,: these results could be similarly affected.HC(0)F yields were also used and indeed a decrease of ca. 20% in the ratio k,/k, was reported in this case implying a higher value of k, . In both studies, a reasonably complete carbon balance among the measured products was reported, particularly at high [O,]. However, in neither study was the fate of HO, formed in reaction (4) considered, whereas in the present work, substantial yields of CF,CHFOOH and CF300H were predicted by the simulations using the full mechanism. Heterogeneous decomposition of the hydroperoxide CF,CHFOOH could provide another source of CF,C(O)F which is included in the carbon balance. In the present work, only the HC(0)F yields were used in the extraction of kinetic parameters.This product has a unique source in reaction (5) and analysis of the yields using two independent techniques was used to determine k,/k, . Nevertheless, an overestimation of k, cannot be ruled out in this work, in view of the sensitivity of k, to the regeneration factor, 8. In the temperature range over which these studies overlap, the temperature dependence of k, from the three relative rate studies is in good agreement. However, at the lowest temperature (235 K) in the present work, the value of k, obtained is a factor of three higher than that predicted by linear extrapolation of the Arrhenius expressions based on all data from T > 261 K. Furthermore, both Wallington et al." and Tuazon and Atkinson'* have shown that the ratio k,/k, is pressure dependent, presumably owing to unimolecular fall-off in reaction (5) at pressure below 1 atm at room tem- perature.Although the results of Wallington et al." would be consistent with a high-pressure limit value of k, up to a factor of 2 higher than the 1 atm pressure value, it seems unlikely that fall-off effects could account for the apparent J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, VOL. 90 curvature in the Arrhenius plot implied by the 235 K results in the present study. An alternative explanation for this cur- vature is non-Arrhenius behaviour of the reference rate coeffi- cient, k,, a possibility which cannot be discounted since no determinations of the temperature dependence of CF,CHFO + 0, kinetics have been reported. Direct measurements of k, have been reported by Maricq and Szentel, and Zellner et Maricq and Szente14 used a flash photolysis time-resolved UV spectroscopic study of the CF3CFH0, self-reaction over the temperature range 211-372 K.The production and loss of the CF,CFHO radical was monitored directly from the time dependence of an absorption feature centred near 270 nm, assigned to CF,CFHO. Rate constants were derived by fitting a mecha- nism similar to that used in the present work, which is based on the work of Wallington et a!. l1 The expression derived for k, for a total pressure of 230 Torr was k, = (3.7 f0.7) x lo7 exp[-(2200 & 150)/T] s-'. These data are shown in Fig. 8. The pressure dependence obtained by Wallington et al.l1 indicates that the value of k, at 230 Torr would be about a factor of two lower than the high-pressure limit value.However, even allowing for this effect it can be seen that the room temperature value, corrected for the pressure depen- dence, is a factor of three lower than that from the relative rate determinations, and that the temperature dependence of k, from the direct determinations is much less pronounced. As pointed out by Maricq and Szente,14 their reaction condi- tions would be expected to lead to values of A, and E, lower than the high-pressure limit values. However, if fall-off effects are used to account for their reported values, they would have to be even larger than those needed to account for the results of the present study at 235 K, which already seem inconsistent with the pressure dependence observed by Wall- ington et al." Maricq and Szente', also noticed that their data for CF,CHFO decomposition were not consistent with the branching ratio for the CF,CHFO, self-reaction, Q, extrapolated to low temperatures, indicating some mechanis- tic complications at low temperature.Zellner et a1." obtained a value of k, at 298 K and 230 Torr of (1.8 & 0.4) x lo4 s-' from the time dependence of OH and NO, formation in the pulsed photolysis of C1,-HFC 1 Ma-NO-0, mixtures. Using the pressure dependence of Wallington et al." this corresponds to a value of ca. 8 x lo4 s-l at 760 Torr, in better agreement with the relative rate studies than that of Maricq and Szente.', However, at present, both the direct determinations and the relative rate studies show considerable uncertainty and the reasons for these discrepancies are not apparent.Table 5 shows the Arrhenius parameters for reaction (5) obtained from the various temperature-dependent studies. All values except those of Maricq and Szente14 are close to the high-pressure limit according to the data of Wallington et al. Nevertheless, the A factors are all significantly lower than the typical value of 1013-10'4 s-expected for a radical decomposition at the high-pressure limit.,' This suggests that Table 5 Arrhenius parameters for the reaction CF,CHFO -+ CF,+ HC(0)FO 16.7 4820 12.0 this work (arithmetic) 180 3.8 1.9 5570 4525 4435 9.98 7.5 5.1 this work (modelling) Wallington et al."

Further experimental investigation of the pressure dependence is clearly needed to establish if this is the case. For the purposes of calculating the rate of CF,CFHO decomposition at atmospheric pressure the expression in Table 5 is recommended. This is based on the mean of the experimental values at 293 K and the E/R values from Wall- ington et a/.," Tuazon and Atkinson', and the present work, excluding the data at 235 K.The temperature dependences obtained from the present work if the 235 K data are included, and from the lower pressure data of Maricq and Szente,14 both lead to unrealistically low A factors and are therefore not included in the evaluation. Errors Errors in individual Arrhenius expressions in this work have been quoted, at the la level solely for the temperature depen- dence (E/R)of the returned k,/k, or the k, value from the analysis. This is in accordance with other recent published on this reaction and reflects the fact that although the relative rate k,/k, is well established, the pre-exponential factor and hence the absolute values of k, and k, are not. Furthermore, because of the limited number of data points obtained in this study, a full statistical analysis of errors is inappropriate. The error given in the final recommendation for k, has been obtained using the procedure adopted by the NASA panel for chemical data evaluation.' This method uses the error in the ambient temperature value of k, [f(293)] and that in the temperature dependence (AEIR)to determine the approximate la errors over the entire temperature range.The errors are obtained by multiplying or dividing the value of k, at any given temperature, T, byf(T). Thus AE 1f(T) =f(293) exp 1 -R (-T -L,1293 Adopting this procedure, the percentage errors in k, for this study are f30% at ambient temperature, rising to f56% at 235 K and f38% at 318 K.The average errors in the recommended k, value are &40% across the entire tem- perature range. Atmospheric Modelling There is considerable interest in the relative rate of pro- duction of CF,C(O)F and HC(0)F in the atmospheric oxida- tion of HFC 134a. Neither of these compounds will be significantly photolysed in the tropo~phere~?~ and their major fate is likely to be physical removal in the aqueous phase. Hydrolysis of CF,C(O)F leads to CF,C(O)OH, tri-fluoroacetic acid (TFA), which is the subject of some environ- mental concern., TFA is also likely to be physically removed in rain water3, and the source region of CF,C(O)F will therefore determine the atmospheric distribution of CF,C(O)OH produced from HFC 134a photooxidation.A 2D model2, was used to calculate the latitude-height dis-tribution of the OH-induced oxidation of HFC 134a. Coupled with a knowledge of the temperature and pressure dependence of the relative rate of formation of CF,C(O)F and HC(O)F, the distribution of the source term of these two products in the atmosphere was computed.

J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, 90(13), 1831-1837 Transition Vector Symmetry and the Internal Pseudo-rotation and Inversion Paths of CIF,' Ruslan M. Minyaev Institute of Physical and Organic Chemistry, Rostov State University, Stachka A ve., 19413, Rostov-on- Don 344 104 , Russia David J. Wales University Chemical Laboratories, Lensfield Road, Cambridge, UK CB2 IEW A new definition of the transition vector symmetry group is suggested. The utility of the definition is demon- strated by calculations of the pathways of the internal pseudo-rotation and inversion of CIF,' (DZP and DZP/MP2 levels). The lowest internal pseudo-rotation proceeds by a Berry mechanism with an activation barrier of 6.7 kcal mol-'. The lever mechanism has a higher barrier of 39.5 kcal mol-' and would lead to more extensive fluorine scrambling.The inversion reaction that leads to enantiomerization corresponds to a planar D,, tran-sition state with an activation barrier of 60 kcal mol-'. 1. Introduction Considerable effort has been devoted to the elucidation of the connection between the symmetry elements of a transition state, and those of reactant and product. Many selection rules have been proposed.'-' ' The most important principles are probably the conservation of orbital symmetry introduced by Woodward and Hoffmann,' and selection rules for transition states due to Stanton and McIver., From a geometrical point of view, the transition-state structure is the nuclear configu- ration corresponding to a saddle point with one negative curvature2 (Hessian index, A = 1)12 on the potential-energy surface (PES) of a molecule.Any Hessian eigenvector at this point may be classified according to an irreducible representation' of the appropriate point group. Hence, the symmetry properties of the Hessian eigenvector with unique imaginary frequency (the transition ~ector)~.~ are also those of some particular irreducible representation. At the same time the transition vector considered as a local displacement vector creates an infinitesimally perturbed molecular configu- ration whose point group must be a subgroup of that of the transition state. The purpose of this paper is to focus on the symmetry properties of the transition vector in a slightly dif- ferent way to McIver and Stanton3v4 which may have some advantages.We illustrate this idea by ab initio calculations (at the DZP and DZP/MP2 levels) of the internal pseudo-rotation and inversion pathways of the ClF,+ cation. We chose this cation for the following reasons: first, inter- halogens represent a very unusual class of hypervalent stereo- chemically non-rigid molecules with different mechanisms of internal rearrangement (Berry pseudo-rotation,', turnstile rotati~n,'~*'~Bartell mechanism' etc.) and have conse-quently been much However, ClF4+ has attracted rather less attention and the internal mechanism of rearrangement remains ambiguous. The temperature dependence of the 19F NMR spectra indicates27 that rapid fluorine ligand exchange in ClF,+ occurs in a solution of ClF,-HF-AsF,.However, whether this is inter- or intra-molecular ligand exchange has not been el~cidated.~ The first ab initio (STO-6G) calculations of Guest et ~1.'~predicted a stable square pyramidal structure for ClF4+ with F-C1-F angles of 154" which was in dis- agreement with experimental observation^.^^-^* Ungemach and Schaefer' pointed out the reason for this disagreement and demonstrated the crucial influence of chlorine d basis functions. Ab initio calculations without such orbitals predict that the square-pyramidal C,, structure of ClF4+ is a minimum even with rather large DZ basis sets.*' Only when chlorine d orbitals are included do calculations find the correct C,, ClF,+ minim~m'~,~'which is consistent with vibrational28 and 19FNMR27spectra as well as with VSEPR concepts.29 Pershin and B01dyrev~~ considered the relative stability of the C2,, C,, and D,, structures of ClF,+.However, they did not consider the Hessian matrix and did not study the reaction pathways. Therefore, we decided to calculate approximate pathways for the different rearrange- ments of ClF4+. The organisation of the paper is as follows. In the second section we describe the methods of calculation. The third section is devoted to new considerations of the transition vector symmetry and its conservation along the gradient lineal1,30-33 The Berry and lever pseudo-rotations are con- sidered in Sections 4 and 5, and the inversion pathways and global topological structure of the PES are considered in Section 6.2. Methods of Calculation All the stationary point optimisations and approximate gra- dient line calculations in this work were performed by eigenvector-following34 (EF) using analytic first and second derivatives at every step which were generated by the CADPAC program.35 The particular EF implementation has been developed and discussed in some detail in previous The method enables one to follow a particular Hessian eigenvector uphill, whilst simultaneously minimising the energy in conjugate directions. This procedure is used to find transition states, while minimisation in all directions is used to locate minima. All calculations were conducted in Cartesian coordinates using a projection operator to remove overall translation and r~tation.~' A maximum step length criterion was used to scale the steps, if necessary.Approximations to the gradient lines were calculated by displacing each transition-state geometry along the two direc- tions corresponding to the (non-mass-weighted) Hessian eigenvector associated with the unique imaginary frequency. Perturbations consisted of adding/subtracting & of the com- ponents of the normalised eigenvector in each case. Pathways were always followed downhill, i.e. by minimising the energy, and no symmetry restrictions were imposed. Calculations were considered to be converged when the maximum step size was <lop4 a, (bohr) and the rms gradient E, a, 't for two consecutive steps, which usually reduces the six 'zero' Hessian eigenvalues to the order of 0.3 cm-'.The basis sets employed were those supplied in the standard CADPAC librar~;~' the DZP basis is obtained by adding polarisation functions with exponents 1.0 (H), 0.8 (C) and 1.2 (F)to the Dunning double zeta basis.38 It is well known that pathways calculated with second- derivative-based algorithms are not quite the same as true steepest-descent or gradient-line paths ; in fact, for some pathological surfaces it is possible to converge to the wrong minimum.39 However, we have no reason to expect such dim- culties in the present case, and the algorithm adopted also means that all the Hessian eigenvectors are available at each step.Hence it was not difficult to follow the evolution of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors along the path using the overlap (dot product) of eigenvectors at successive steps to identify the correlation. We expect our calculations to remain valid for closer approximations to the gradient lines. 3. Transition Vector Symmetry A transition-state structure is a molecular configuration cor- responding to a saddle point with one imaginary frequency2 independent of the PES in neighbouring regions. Therefore, the transition-state structure is defined purely from a geo- metrical point of view, and the transition-state symmetry is given by the appropriate point group.13 All the Hessian eigenvectors must transform according to one of the irreduc- ible representations of this group.13 This is true for the eigen- vectors of both the mass-weighted and non-mass-weighted Hessian ; here we consider the latter matrix exclusively.The transition vector (Hessian eigenvector corresponding to the unique imaginary frequency) transforms according to a non- degenerate irreducible repre~entation.~.~Infinitesimal dis-placements of all atoms along the transition vector lead to a slightly distorted structure whose point group is a subgroup of the transition-state point group', which we will call the transition-vector symmetry group. This definition of the transition vector symmetry is slightly different from that introduced earlier by McIver and Stant~n.~'~ By our defini- tion the transition vector possesses a symmetry property as a real vector rather than as a vibrational m~de.~.~,~ There are several important points to note concerning the gradient-line reaction path, the transition-vector symmetry group, defined above, and the application of the Pearson6- Pechukas' (PP) theorems. First, minimum-energy pathways (MEPs) can deviate from steepest-descent paths at branching points.Since the PP results only apply to steepest-descent paths, they may not be obeyed by MEPs, which can lead to confusion. For example, the reaction-path degeneracy may not be apparent. The second point is that the PP theorems state that the molecular point group can change only at a critical point. In contrast, by our definition the transition- vector symmetry cannot change at all along a steepest-descent path.The proof of this follows in just the same way as for the PP theorem, except that it extends to the critical points because we only consider perturbed geometries. We may therefore apply the principle of conservation of transition-vector symmetry group to any gradient line ema- nating from a transition state until it reaches the next critical point (which may be also a transition state). To clarify this situation let us consider the inversion of ammonia (Scheme 1). t 1 a, (bohr) E 5.291 77 x lo-" m. 1 E, (hartree) z 4.35975 x lo-" J. J. CHEM. SOC.

Other examples are internal rotation about the C-C bond in ethane4' and internal pseudo-rotation in phos-ph~ranes;'~,~~,~'in each case the transition-vector symmetry group by our definition is conserved along the whole gradient line from one critical point to another. In the following sec- tions we will demonstrate the utility of this idea for the inter- nal pseudo-rotation and inversion pathways of ClF4+. 4. Berry Pseudo-rotation Ab initio calculations predict that ClF4+ in the ground singlet state has the stable C,, structure, 3 (see Scheme 2), with two different bonds: axial and equatorial (see Table 1 and Fig.1). These results are in agreement with previous cal- culation~,'~~~~~~~experimental data27,28 and with Gillespie's VSEPR theory.29 FL 49 c'tv Scheme 2 Calculated vibrational frequencies and assignments for 3 are given in Table 2 and compared with experimental data.28 The agreement between calculated and experimental fre-quencies is satisfactory. Significant differences are observed for o2and w6, both of which are related to the stretching of axial bonds. The disagreement seems to be due to the harmo- nic approximation, the number of basis functions and the effects of correlation.

Unfortunately, Christe and Sa~odny~~were not able to decrease the temperature of the ClF5-HF-SbF, mixture sufficiently (because of the freezing point of HF) to observe the fine structure of the "F NMR spectra in the absence of ligand exchange and thus obtain a value for the activation barrier. However, the similarity of the NMR spectrum behaviour for ClF4+z7 and sulfurane SF, 59,51 suggests that their activation barriers are compara- ble.The activation barrier deduced for the ligand exchange in SF, ranges from 4.5 to 16 kcal mol-' from various experi- ment~."-~~ predict values of l2,* Ab initio calculations48~49 and 10.6 kcal mol- '.49 All of these numbers are close to the value obtained for ClF4+, namely 6.7 kcal moi-'. Thus it seems likely that the ligand exchange in ClF4+ occurs intra- molecularly by the Berry mechanism. The Berry pseudo-rotation 3a 4 36 occurs along a gra- dient line of TS 4 that is tangential to the transition vector and enters minimum 3 tangential to the Hessian eigenvector with the smallest eigenvalue, which has A, symmetry.The C,, symmetry group of the TS 4 transition vector is con- served along the whole Berry pseudorotation pathway 3a s 4 +36 (Scheme 2). 5. 'Lever' Mechanism of Pseudo-rotation The Berry pseudo-rotation (Scheme 2) does not lead to com- plete fluorine scrambling, whereas the 'lever' mechanism (Scheme 3) proposed55 for SF, would result in sequential axial-equatorial permutations, 3a e5 e3c. The degree of scrambling can actually be made more precise in terms of the effective molecular symmetry group, as we discuss at the end of this section. The 'lever' mechanism is similar to the 'turnstile' pseudo-rotation in phosphoranes' and pro- 5916 ceeds via transition state 5 which has C, symmetry. Previous extended Hiickel and CND0/2 calculation^^^ of the lever pathway for SF, suggest that this mechanism has a slightly higher (about 2-10 kcal mol-') activation barrier than the Berry process, and under some conditions it might compete with Berry pseudo-rotation.Of course, these are only qualit- ative calculations. As far as we know the C, structure, 5, for SF, is the true transition structure for the lever mechanism and has been .~~found by Schleyer et ~1Our calculations predict that struc- ture 5 (C,)also corresponds to a true transition state (A = 1) for ClF4+ but with a rather high activation barrier of 39.5 kcal mol-'. Thus it appears that the lever mechanism cannot compete with the Berry process in this system.

The system cir- cumnavigates a rather flat hill, the top of which corresponds to C,, structure 6 with A = 2 (see Fig. 1 and Table l), and can return to starting point 3a via three equivalent steps.The gradient-line pathways along Hessian eigenvectors corre-sponding to the imaginary frequencies of structure 6 lead either to minimum 3 (C,,) or to transition state 5 (C,). The complete scrambling scheme taking into account all four dis- tinct lever pathways for each minimum, 3, is represented by the octahedral reaction graph in Fig. 2.

The crosses at the midpoint of these lines denote the 12 versions of TS 5 (C,)that are involved.The effective molecular symmetry (MS) group contains 24 operations for the lever mechanism, giving half the complete nuclear permutation inversion (CNPI) Hence the reaction graph in Fig. 2 contains half of the 12 distinct ver- sions of minimum 3 and half of the 24 distinct versions of TS SS8We have not attempted to represent any further connec- tions with the higher-index saddles 6 and 7in this graph. F 69, c,, (1= 2) 7,Td(1= 2) Although the Berry mechanism on its own connects only pairs of versions of the C,, minimum, if both the Berry and lever mechanism are feasible then the effective MS group becomes the CNPI group. In this case all 12 distinct C,, minima can interconvert. All of these MS group character- isations were readily carried out with a recently developed computer pr~gram.’~ 6.Inversion Mechanism According to our ab initio calculations planar structure 8 (D4h) is a true TS (A = 1) at the DZP level for the inversion process with a calculated activation barrier of 59.5 kcal mol-’. The corresponding barrier for SF, is calculated to be 108.8 kcal mol-1.49” The gradient line along which the inver- sion reaction occurs emanates from TS 8 tangential to the eigenvector corresponding to the transition vector (see Scheme 5) and enters transition state 4 tangential to the eigenvector corresponding to the fourth smallest positive eigenvalue. It is important to emphasise that the C,, sym-metry group of the transition vector of TS 8 is conserved along this pathway from 4a to 4b via 8 according to our defi- nition.This gradient line connects three successive TSs ; however, there is no contradiction between the proposed inversion path and the Fernandez-Sinanoglu theorem,60 which states that a gradient line passing through a minimum cannot cross two successive saddle points. In our case the whole reaction path consists of three different gradient lines, while the Fernandez-Sinanoglu theorem holds only for a reaction path consisting of one gradient line. The complete gradient-line reaction path of Scheme 6 at the DZP level consists of three different gradient lines. Two of them are equivalent (GL1 and GL1’) and correspond to Berry pseudo-rotations 3ae4ae36 and 3f= 4b s3g passing through transition states 4a and 4b, respectively.The 1) Fig. 2 Schematic representation of the reaction graph for the gradient-line reaction path for the lever mechanism ligand exchange in CIF,+.

Taking EF24 steps with starting displacements along one of the directions defined by the Hessian eigenvector of TS 8 corresponding to the unique imaginary frequency, we calcu-lated the pathway and energy profile from TS 8 to TS 4a.The pathway is only an approximate gradient line36 since the EF steps are not strictly parallel to the gradient vector.39 However, it is probably close enough to GL2 for our pur-poses and has the same symmetry properties, as corroborated by the evolution of the Hessian eigenvectors corresponding to the lowest Hessian eigenvalues along the pathway (Fig.3). The evolution of the five smallest Hessian eigenvalues along this path is shown in Fig. 4. The TS 8 transition vector transforms smoothly into the Hessian eigenvector of transition state 4a with A, symmetry, which has the fourth largest positive eigenvalue. The TS 4u transition vector (for Berry pseudo-rotation, see Scheme 2) is perpendicular to it, so that the gradient-line pathway changes direction in configuration space. In other words, the gradient-line path changes from GL2 to GL1 (or GLl’). Furthermore, from point 4a (or 44, there are two equivalent paths along both parts of GL1 (or GL1’) to minima 3a and 3b (or 3fand 3g).Of course, the total energy of the system decreases along the whole of the gradient-line reaction path (see Fig. 3). Note that on GL2 (from both sides of TS 8) there are two points B and B‘ (see Fig. 3 and 4) where a Hessian eigenvalue changes sign from plus to minus. These are ‘branching’61 points where the minimum-energy reaction paths and the symmetry is broken,66 i.e. the four-fold axis changes to two-fold. However, such points are not sta-tionary points, because VE does not vanish.Consequently, the minimum-energy pathway67-70 might appear to violate Pearson’s6 and Pechukas’’ theorems, except that the latter should be applied only to steepest-descent paths. The system cannot change its direction of motion at the branching points and by our definition the gradient-line reaction path con-tinues to follow GL2 and hence cannot change the point-I \\-856 4---856.41.>c -856.44 -856.41 r------h+-856.42. ‘\Y \-856 43. -856 44-\ -856 45 -a-856461 , , ‘\ /4’ c4v{ *a, -856 47 0 2 4 6 8 101214 . steps transition vector Fig. 3 Schematic three-dimensional representation of the ClF,+ PES (bottom) (no attempt has been made to show the branching points), energy profile (top) and evolution of two Hessian eigen-vectors along the gradient line from TS 8 (D4h)to TS 4a (C4J On the left is the transition vector for TS 4 which correlates with the smallest positive eigenvalue of TS 8; on the right is the transition vector for TS 8 which correlates with the fourth smallest positive eigenvalue of TS 4.0.41 a-?I9 -0.2-/ bifurcation pointal .-0 Q, -0.4-C .-cn8 -0.6-,iI -1.0 ! , 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 steps Fig. 4 Evolution of the five lowest eigenvalues of the projected Hessian (non-mass-weighted) along the approximate DZP/SCF gra-dient line path from TS 8 (D4h) to TS 4a (C4v),as determined by overlap of the corresponding Hessian eigenvectors.

Although a displacement in the direction corresponding to the new negative curvature would lead to a further decrease in energy, such steps are not taken because the gradient has no component in this direction. Thus, at points B and B' the gradient-line path deviates from the bifurcating minimum-energy paths which follow the valley bottoms, rather than moving along the ridge,39 and avoid transition-state structures 4a and 46. On the pathway 4aeSe46 the reaction follows one gra- dient line (GL2) which conserves C,, symmetry. Then, at point 4a (or 46) corresponding to the other transition state (for Berry pseudo-rotation), the pathway follows another gra- dient line (GL1 or GL1') and descends to minimum 3a or 3b (3f or 3g).In this case, we should apply Pearson's and Pechukas' theorems separately to the three gradient lines, GL1, GL1' and GL2, whose symmetry properties are differ- ent, and thus no contradiction arises. The schematic three-dimensional shape of the ClF4+ PES is depicted in Fig. 3. The main feature of this PES is that GL2, which connects TS 4a to the second saddle point 46 via saddle point 8, does not lead to any of the minima 3a-g directly. These minima are interconnected by GL1 or GL1' passing through saddle points 4a or 46, respectively. There- fore, by our definition the complete gradient-line reaction pathway consists of the three gradient lines GL1, GLl', and GL2. During the course of the reaction in Scheme 6, the scheme first moves along GL1, then at point 4a changes direction to GL2, and moves along GL2 to TS 46 via TS 8.Finally, the system can descend either part of GL1' to minimum 3for 3g. The observed topology of the ClF,+ PES in the inversion region may be quite common in organic, inorganic and other reactions. For example, the rearrangement of cyclo-octatetraene seems to follow a reaction pathway similar to that in Scheme 2. The reason for this is very simple: the gra- dient line emanating from the D8h transition structure along the single imaginary mode, as reported by Hrovat and B~rden,~'has B,, symmetry and should lead to the planar D4h structure. The same is true also for the 1,3 H shift from nitrogen to oxygen in sulfamic acid in the rearrangement reaction from the neutral (H,N-S0,OH) to the zwitterionic (H,H+-SO,-) form.72 The high activation barrier of the ClF, inversion reaction + suggests that derivatives might be obtained in an optically active form similar to cyclic ~ulfuranes.~~ Furthermore, the synthesis of a stable 10-1-4 periodonium ion by Dess and Martin7, supports this assumption.7.

Furthermore, structure 8 becomes lower in energy than 3 which is not consistent with experi- mental data27.28 and VSEPR theory.,' These results testify that for structures >8 there are numerous low-lying elec- tronic states, and that application of configuration inter- action might be necessary to obtain the correct results.22 This must be a matter for future investigation. 8.Conclusions There are two different topomerization mechanisms in ClF,+: the Berry and lever pseudo-rotations. At the DZP level the Berry process is lower in energy, although only the lever mechanism leads to significant ligand scrambling. Taking into account the quite low activation barrier calcu- lated for the Berry pseudo-rotation in ClF4+ we expect that the ligand exchange in ClF,+ occurs intramolecularly by this mechanism. Of course, these calculations do not rule out intermolecular ligand exchange, and the surface changes sig-nificantly at the DZP/MP2 level. The suggested definition of the transition-vector symmetry group leads to easily interpreted gradient-line reaction path- ways for ClF,+, as for other systems.The high activation barrier calculated at the DZP level for the inversion process suggests the existence of optically active organic tetracoordinated chlorine derivatives, although more accurate correlated calculations will be needed to make a firm prediction.

J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, 90(13), 1839-1847 Gradient-line Reaction Paths for 1,2 H Shift Reactions in Phosphinonitrene and Formaldehyde, and H, Elimination from Formaldehyde Ruslan M. Minyaev Institute of Physical and Organic Chemistry, Rostov State University, Stachka Ave., 19413,Rostov-on-Don 344 104, Russia David J. Wales University Chemical Laboratories, Lensfield Road, Cambridge, UK CB2 IEW The reaction pathway for the 1,2 H shift in H,PN may be described as two equivalent gradient lines (double-line reaction path) leading from phosphinonitrene to cis-phosphazene rather than to trans-phosphazene. The gradient-line reaction path does not contain branching points and coincides with the minimum-energy pathway. Two different reactions, 1,2 H shift and H, elimination for formaldehyde, occur along two different gradient lines which both enter the minimum parallel to the softest Hessian eigenvector. 1.Introduction The notion of a transition state and the pathwaylP4 linking it on the Born-Oppenheimer potential-energy surface’ (PES) to both minima, reactant and product, plays a fundamental role in chemistry and biochemistry. Reaction rate calculations6-’ are based upon these concepts, along with our understanding of the reaction mechanism,’-’ the behaviour of non-rigid molecular systems,’ 3-1 ’ and the interpretation of vibrational spectra.16*17 Each of these concepts requires a detailed know- ledge of the PES topology along the whole reaction path from one minimum to another.Understanding enzyme cata- lytic action at the molecular level requires us to characterise the transition state and how it Usually one con- siders the minimum-energy reaction path (MERP)’ 1-26 con-necting reactant and product via the transition state. However, the MERP may bifurcate away from the line of steepest In this case, point group symmetry need not be conserved along the MERP and can change at the branching points.32 This does not contradict pear son'^^^ and Pe~hukas’~~theorems because the latter should be applied only to steepest descent paths. However, symmetry breaking along an MERP creates difficulties in understand- ing the dependence of the symmetry properties of the product on those of the reactant and transition state.Such behaviour also hampers construction of the true topology of the PES. Some unusual properties of reaction pathways are often attributed to bifurcation of the reaction path. For example according to ab initio calculation^^^-^^ the 1,2 H shift reac- tion (Scheme 1) occurs through a non-symmetrical transition state, 2. H H Scheme 1 The appearance of such a transition state is often attributed to the presence of bifurcation points on the PES. The aim of the present paper is to show that there are actually no branching points between minimum 1 and tran- sition state 2 for the reaction (Scheme 1) on the gradient-line reaction path, which is in fact described by Scheme 2. The reaction pathway of Scheme 2 differs significantly from that of Scheme 1.First, Scheme 2 leads to cis-phosphazene H \ P=N ,P=N, H’ HH Scheme 2 (4), rather than to trans-phosphazene. Secondly, the reaction pathway does not contain any bifurcation points and prin- cipally consists of two enantiomeric gradient lines passing through two transition states, 2a and 2b. In fact, there is a gradient line linking minimum 1 to minimum 3 which passes through a critical point of index two (2. = 2). ’It has also been suggested that all reaction pathways in mass-weighted coordinates (or ‘kinematic space’390) enter a minimum tangential to the softest normal mode.24*40*4’ Indeed, as is shown in Section 3, an infinite set of gradient lines do enter a minimum in the direction of the ‘softest’ Hessian eigenvector (eigenvector corresponding to the small- est eigen~alue)~’~ which may not correspond to the softest normal mode.The second aim of the present paper is to illus- trate two gradient-line reaction pathways for formaldehyde that enter the minimum parallel to the softest Hessian eigen- vector which has different symmetry from the softest normal mode. These results testify that the behaviour of the gradient line and intrinsic reaction pathway^^^,^' on the PES is differ- ent. Our considerations are all based upon the gradient-line reaction path (GLRP) which we have introduced in previous and have shown to have some useful properties. The GLRP is defined as the set of gradient lines linking two successive minima.43,44 Gradient lines cannot bifurcate or coalesce at any non-stationary points on the PES, and hence the transition-vector symmetry group4* is conserved along a gradient line.Such methodology has now been applied to Scheme 2. The methods are described in Section 2. Two reac- tion pathways, 1,2 H shift and H, elimination for formalde- hyde, are considered in Section 4. 2. Methods All the stationary-point optimisations and approximate gradient-line calculations in this work were performed by eigenvector-following45 (EF) using analytic first and second derivatives at every step generated by the CADPAC program.46 The particular EF implementation has been developed and discussed in previous ~ork.~~,~* The method enables one to follow a particular Hessian eigenvector uphill, whilst simultaneously minimising the energy in all the conju- gate directions.This procedure is used to find transition states, while minimisation in all directions is used to locate minima. All calculations were conducted in Cartesian coordi- nates using a projection operator to remove overall trans- lation and rotation4* A maximum step length criterion was used to scale the steps, if necessary. Approximations to the gradient lines were found by dis- placing each transition-state (or saddle-point) geometry along the two directions corresponding to the (non-mass-weighted) Hessian eigenvector associated with the (usually) unique ima- ginary frequency. Perturbations consisted of adding/ subtracting of the components of the normalised eigenvector in each case. Except for one case, the pathways were always followed downhill, i.e.by minimising the energy, and no symmetry restrictions were imposed. Calculations were considered converged when the maximum step size was -= a, and the rms gradient was < E, a, 't for two consecutive steps, which usually reduces the 'zero' Hessian eigenvalues to the order of 0.3 cm-'. The basis sets employed were those supplied in the standard CADPAC library;46 the DZP basis is obtained by adding polarisation functions with exponents 1.0 (H), 0.8 (C) and 1.2 (F) to the Dunning double zeta bask4' It is well known that pathways calculated with second- derivative-based algorithms are not quite the same as true steepest-descent or gradient-line paths; in fact, for some pathological surfaces it is possible to converge to the wrong minimum.50 However, we had no reason to expect such diffi- culties in the present case, and the algorithm adopted also means that all the Hessian eigenvectors are available at each step.Hence it was not difficult to follow the evolution of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors along the path using the overlap (dot product) of eigenvectors at successive steps to identify the correlation. However, since some of our results were unexpected we checked several of the paths by simply taking small steps along the negative gradient vector. The eigenvector-following pathways were found to be essentially correct in each case. 3. Behaviour of Gradient Lines in the Local Region of a Minimum The equations which define gradient lines in 3N-6 dimension-al configuration space (where N is the number of nuclei in the molecule) can be written in the form24,27,39b*41 where Qk(k = 1, 2, .. . ,3N-6) are curvilinear coordinates and gkJis a metric tensor.51 The PES E = E(Q)in the local region of a minimum can always be expressed as a Taylor expansion in diagonal form:52,53 1 3N-6( a2E ) @')' E(Q) = 2 (aQ32 min t 1 a, (bohr) ~5.29177x lo-" m. 1 E, (hartree) ~4.35975x lo-'* J. J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, VOL. 90 Such a representation means that in the region of a minimum (or any stationary point) the Euclidian = 6kj (3) can be introduced. Here akj is the Kronecker symbol defined as (4) This local expansion is also called the Hessian eigenvalue rep- re~entation,~~'and corresponds to an orthogonal transform- ation of basis in terms of the Hessian eigenvectors.Taking into account relations (2) and (3),eqn. (1)can be rewritten as a system of ordinary differential equations with constant coefficients: -=-akQk, k = 1, 2, ..., 3N-6 (5)dt where ak = -((:22)min Eqn. (5) has two types of solution for each k: trivial39b Qk= 0 (6) and non-trivia12 9 9b27349 Qk = (Qk)o exP(-ak 1) (7) where (Qk))ois an initial point corresponding to t = 0 and ak is the kth Hessian eigenvalue at the minimum. Solutions with all Qk = 0 except for one particular Qj define the 3N-6 axis lines or directions of principal curvature at the minimum.Solutions with only two Qk non-zero, say (Ii and Qj, are parabolas in the Qi-Qj plane which enter the minimum parallel to whichever of the two vectors has the smallest eigen~alue,~~~ so long as the eigenvalues are non- degenerate (see Fig. 1). Thus, all the gradient lines (GLs) entering the minimum have components satisfying eqn. (6)or (7) in the local region of the minimum. The gradient lines coinciding with coordinate axes (principal directions of curvature) we will call principal gradient lines (pGLs); the rest we will call non-principal GL (npGL). Obviously, there are only 2(3N-6) pGLs (if we consider positive and negative directions for each axis39b) whereas there exists an infinite set of npGLs. In fact, every non-stationary point on the PES lies E 4 h=O Fig.1 Behaviour of principal (solid lines) and non-principal (thin lines) gradient lines in the local region of a minimum J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, VOL. 90 on a unique gradient 1ine.34.52-54 Naturally, transition states may lie on either sort of GL, principal or non-principal. If two transition states lie on two different pGLs then the two gradient-line reaction path^^^-^^ enter the minimum perpen- dicular to one another. Transition states may also lie on an npGL. An interesting situation arises when the eigenvector q1 corresponding to the smallest eigenvalue (a1)is invariant under a reflection or two- fold rotation given by operation R. In this case there may be two equivalent gradient lines, npGL and R(npGL), leading to two (possibly enantiomeric) equivalent transition states, TS and R(TS) as shown in Scheme 3. min Scheme 3 The two npGLs, npGL and R(npGL), can lead either to the same minimum or to two different versions of the same minimum.The first case is observed for the 1,2 H shift reac- tion in phosphinonitrene which is considered in Section 4. 4. 1,2 H Shift in Phosphinonitrene According to our ab initio (DZP) calculations, H,PN in the ground electronic state has three different minima 1, 3 and 4, while structure 2 is a true transition state (A = 1)for the 1,2 H shift from P to N and structure 5 is a second index (A = 2) critical point (see Table 1 and Fig. 2).

Structure 5 corresponds to a second index critical point. Bond lengths are given in A, bond angles in degrees. The total energies and geometrical parameters for structures 1-5 calculated in the present work at the DZP/SCF level agree with those obtained in previous ab initio calcu- lation~.'~-~*The latter work has shown that the positions of critical points in nuclear configuration space for this molecule do not change significantly when the computational effort is increased from SCF/DZP to MP4/6-311 + +G(df, p)35 (see Table 1).Hence the topology of the H,PN PES is insensitive to the level of the calculation and we therefore employed the DZP/SCF approach throughout. Within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation,' and from a classical point of the reaction path is a line belonging to the PES. In the absence of any external fields, the gradient lines of the PES define the local resultant force at any point. Scheme 4 is, in fact, composed of such gradient lines. H' H 26,C,(A= 1) Scheme 4 The complete GLRP (Scheme 4) consists of two equivalent lines [GLl and R(GLl)] corresponding to the 1,2 H shifts 1+2a e4 and 1 26 e4 passing through transition states 2a and 26, respectively.The gradient line (GL2) connecting minima 1 and 3 passes through second index critical point 5 where it correlates with the Hessian eigenvector with the largest-magnitude negative eigenvalue. Furthermore, minimum 3, trans-phosphazene, is linked to cis-phosphazene, minimum 4, by gradient line GL3 passing through structure 6,which corresponds to the transition state for inversion at nitrogen. Taking EF45 steps with starting displacements along both of the directions defined by the Hessian eigen- vector of TS 2 corresponding to the unique negative eigen- value, we calculated the pathways and energy profiles from TS 2 to minima 1 and 4. The pathway is only an approximate gradient line45v47 since the EF steps are not truly parallel to the gradient vector.50 However, this path is probably close enough to GL1 and R(GL1) for our purposes and has the same symmetry properties, as corroborated by the corre-lation of the Hessian eigenvectors corresponding to the lowest Hessian eigenvalues along the pathway.We also checked these pathways employing a steepest-descent method and obtained the same results: the steepest descent from 2 in one direction leads to minimum 1 and in the other direction to 4 (Fig. 3). The evolution of the five smallest Hessian eigen- values along these paths is shown in Fig. 4. Comparing Fig. 4(a) and (b) we see that the pathway obtained by EF gives a reasonable impression of how the eigenvectors and eigenvalues are correlated. However, since these paths maintain C,symmetry throughout there should be no crossings in Fig.4, barring accidental degeneracies.

On the right is the eigenvector corresponding to the smallest positive eigenvalue of TS 2 which correlates with the second smallest positive eigenvalue of both minima.avoided crossings are clear for the steepest-descent paths. Because of the mixing which must occur it is difficult to associate particular eigenvectors of the two minima with the reaction vector. Furthermore, in an EF search for a transition state with a reasonable step size the algorithm might take a 'forbidden' step in the vicinity of an avoided crossing, and cross over to the softest mode. We also note that the EF path has a region with two negative eigenvalues, indicating that it has strayed somewhat from the steepest-descent path. In order to elucidate the topology of the H,PN PES we calculated the gradient lines emanating from 5 along the Hessian eigenvector corresponding to the negative eigenvalue of smaller magnitude.In this case the path was not calculated by simple minimisation but instead EF steps were employed following the Hessian eigenvector corresponding to the most negative eigenvalue uphill. These gradient lines link structure 5 with transition states 2u and 2b as corroborated by the correlation of the Hessian eigenvectors corresponding to the lowest Hessian eigenvalues along the pathway and the evolu- tion of the five smallest Hessian eigenvalues along this path 1843 min 1 TS2 min 4 1.071 (a) 0.8 1 % X X X 2 00 ................':-0.2.~ -0.4 10 ( steps TS 2 min 4~~0.9'Imin 1 0.7 52 0.2-1 00 ..................... -0.1 { -0.2 J 1 ...............................7+---+%-*-q 1 .......

(b) Same as (a), but for steepest descent rather than EF paths. The steps correspond to those in Fig. 3. (see Fig. 5 and 6).The H,PN PES has a topology which can be schematically represented by the two-dimensional surface in Fig. 7. Thus, the GLRP of Scheme 4 consists of two equiv- alent (enantiomeric) npGLs and the reaction is equally likely to proceed along either of them.33b,s5 Thus, we have a 'double-line' reaction pathway which consists of so-called narcissistic reactions as considered by Salems6 and others.29 Note that there are no branching points on GL1 and R(GL1): none of the initially positive Hessian eigenvalues change their signs along the pathways and the GLRP in this case coincides with the MERP.The pGL entering minimum 1 along the Hessian eigenvector corresponding to the small- est Hessian eigenvalue links it to the second index critical point 5. The observed double-line reaction pathway may be quite common in organic, inorganic and other reactions. For example, the 1,2 H shift in ethenes7 and H2PP,3s and inter- nal rotation in dimethyl ether,s7-60 propane,s9 acetones9 and other molecules61-62 containing two equivalent rotors all occur along double-line reaction pathways.1844 (0 c .-& 0.0-Q) C I-% -0.2-aI -0.4-5 TS 2-0.6 0 2 4 6 8 1012141 i I t t/ I t I Fig. 5 Evolution of the five lowest Hessian eigenvalues (top) and two eigenvectors (bottom) along the gradient line from structure 5 (Cs,A = 2) to TS 2 (Cl).

Conclusions If a reaction evolves along a non-principal gradient line then the path enters the minimum tangentially to the softest Hessian eigenvector for which it has a non-zero component. This may not correspond to the softest normal mode, as illus- trated by two different reactions, the 1,2 H shift and H, elimi- nation for formaldehyde. When the softest Hessian eigenvector has at least one element of symmetry the gradient-line reaction path may consist of two equivalent gradient lines, forming so-called narcissistic reaction paths. An example is the pathway for the 1,2 H shift in H,PN which may be described as two equiva- lent gradient lines (double-line reaction path) leading from phosphinonitrene to cis-phosphazene rather than to trans-phosphazene.The GLRP at the SCF/DZP level of theory does not contain branching points and coincides with the minimum-energy pathway. Finally, it is interesting to compare our results with those of Taketsugu and Hirano,68 who have recently studied the mechanism of bifurcation in H,CS. These authors interpreted the appearance of bifurcations in terms of a vibronic inter- action via second-order Jahn-Teller analysis. They found that a second-order saddle point for H,CS became a true tran- sition state at the CASSCF level, and suggested that the dis- appearance of bifurcating regions in more accurate correlated calculations may be a common phenomenon.

J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, 90(13), 1849-1852 Non-linear Optical Properties of Organic Molecules Part 13.~-Calculation of the Structure and Frequency-dependent Hyperpolarisability of a Blue Azothiophene Dye John 0. Morley Chemistry Department, University College of Swansea, Singleton Park, Swansea, UK SA2 8PP The st ruct u re of a co m m erc iaI dye, 2-(2-aceta m ido-4-dieth y lam ino p henylazo)-3,5-d in it rothiop hen e, with potent ia I application in non-linear optics has been calculated at the ab initio STO-3G level. The molecule is predicted to be essentially planar between donor and acceptor groups with a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond between the acetamido group and one nitrogen of the azo linkage. The hyperpolarisability of this structure calculated using a semi-empirical molecular orbital sum-over-states method is predicted to be large and arises mainly from the transition of an electron from the ground state to the first excited state.The value obtained is highly dependent on the frequency of the applied field and very substantial resonance enhancement effects are calcu- lated near the transition energy, particularly for linear electro-optic modulation. A considerable number of organic molecules have now been identified as effective materials for applications in non-linear optics, particularly in the area of second harmonic generation (SHG) or linear electro-optic modulation (LEO) where infor- mation is coded directly onto a low-energy carrier wave by application of a dc electric field.'-3 Most active molecules for these applications possess a large molecular hyperpolar-isability and contain a donor and acceptor group situated at either end of a suitable conjugation path ; 2-methyl-4-nitro-aniline is a typical e~ample.~ Most theoretical studies on the non-linear properties of conjugated organic molecules and their frequency-dependent effects have been carried out by calculating their molecular hyperpolarisabilities using molecular orbital theory coupled with sum-over-states (SOS) based on a per- turbation formalism derived by Ward.' ' The appropriate formula for the hyperpolarisability relating to the LEO effect and r'(rn) is the ith component of the position vector of elec- tron rn (of N), rnn= (n I riI n), Qng is the eigenvalue of +,, rela-tive to the ground state +g (the electronic transition energy), e is the magnitude of the electronic charge, and R is the fre- quency of the applied radiation field.This indicates n and n' t Part 12: ref. 18. may be restricted to run over excited states in increasing energy provided (gl I Ig) = 0, which holds only in the elec- tronic charge centroid system as discussed previ~usly.~ A similar expression has been derived by Ward'' for the SHG effect, again from perturbation theory where the appro- priate formula for the hyperpolarisability tensor (&j) is given by: where the terms have the same definition as in eqn. (1). All 27 components of the SHG tensor are calculated using these expressions but the most appropriate quantity is the vector component, 8, theoretically defined as7 where B is aligned to lie along the direction of the molecular dipole moment and is therefore directly related to the non- linear coefficients derived both from electric field induced second harmonic generation in solution and in poled polymer films where molecules are oriented along the direc- tion of their dipole moments by a strong dc field.The effect of a variation of the applied field on the experi- mental and calculated hyperpolarisability of both 4-nitro- and 2-methyl-4-nitro-aniline has been systematically explored for second harmonic generation where there are large reson- ance enhancement effects12 arising from terms such as Q,, -2R in the denominator of eqn.(2). In contrast, few studies have explored the likely resonance approaches the transmission frequency R, hyperpolarisability becomes. The present studies have been carried out to probe theoretically the magnitude of this effect in 2-(2-acetamido-4-diethylaminophenylazo)-3,5-dinitrothio-phene (I), a commercial dye with a strong absorption in the red region of the spe~trum'~ and a potential candidate for LEO applications in poled polymer films, although its struc- ture is unknown. I Method of Calculation The structure and electronic properties of the azothiophene I were calculated from an empirical structure at the ab initio STO-3G levelI4 using the GAMESS program15 with full optimisation of all bond lengths, angles and torsion angles. The derived structure was then used to calculate the molecu- lar hyperpolarisability using the sum-over-states procedure (SOS)which has been specifically parametrised for both SHG7 and LEO applications." calculations, the applied field was varied from 0 to 3.5 eV and Table 1 bond lengthsb S(l)-C(2) 1.741 S(1)-C(5) 1.743 C(2)-C(3) 1.339 C(3)- C(4) 1.439 C(4)-C(5) 1.360 C( 5)- N(6) 1.447 N(6)-N(7) 1.291 N(7)-C(8) 1.437 w-C(9) 1.423 C( 8)-C( 13) 1.406 C( 9) -C( 1 0) 1.397 C( 10)-C( 11) 1.396 C(ll)-C(12) 1.419 C(12)-C( 13) 1.364 C(2)- N( 14) 1.488 N( 14)-O( 15) 1.280 N( 14)-O( 16) 1.280 C(4)-N( 17) 1.487 N(17)-O( 18) 1.279 N(17)-O(19) 1.278 C(9)- N( 20) 1.412 N(20)-C(21) 1.431 C(21)-C(23) 1.542 C(21)-O(22) 1.220 C(ll)--N(24) 1.410 N(24)-C(25) 1.476 C( 25)- C( 26) 1.547 N(24)- C( 27) 1.476 C(27)-C(28) 1.547 See Scheme 1for key to atom positions.In A.

Discussion Structure and Electronic Properties The results from the geometry optimisation using the num- bering convention shown below (Scheme 1) show the mol- ecule to be essentially planar with the exception of the pendant ethyl groups where the terminal carbons are almost perpendicular to the ring plane (Table 1).The bond lengths and angles in the thiophene ring appear to be fully consistent with those found for related structures16 with an approx-imate right angle at C(2)-S(l)-CC(5). The azo N(6)-N(7) bond at 1.291 A is significantly longer, however, than that found in the simple azobenzenes at around 1.270 which probably reflects the presence of the large acetamido group at the 2-position of the phenyl ring.

The molecule is held in a rigid conformation by a strong intra- molecular hydrogen bond between H(29) and the azo N(6) atom, as shown by the interatomic distance of 1.902 A and the relatively larger charges of 0.261 and -0.166, respectively (Table 1).Frequency-depeodentHyperpolarisabilities The calculated hyperpolarisability of the azothiophene I is dominated by the change in electron distribution in moving from the ground state to the first excited state. In the ground state the molecule is mainly polarised from the left-hand donor ring to the right-hand acceptor along the x coordinate, with a smaller component running from top to bottom along the y coordinate, as shown by the components of the dipole moment (Table 2). On excitation to the first excited state there is a large increase in the x component of the dipole moment towards the acceptor group and a substantial tran- sition moment which produces a large hyperpolarisability in the x direction.Both the dipole moment and hyperpolar- isability are negative. The inclusion of a further nine excited states results in little change to the hyperpolarisability, but after 25 excited states are included there is a fall of around 13% in its value (Table 2). Thereafter, the value remains rea- sonably constant up to a total of 80 included states and although the dipole moments of some of these are large, the corresponding transition moments are very small. Although the x component of the hyperpolarisability is very large and negative, in practice, only the vector com- ponent along the direction of the dipole moment is likely to be useful in applications such as poled polymer films.A re-orientation of the tensor components by the appropriate transformation then gives three components including the important vector component, B, which is now positive and somewhat smaller in magnitude than the x component because it lies between and x and y directions (p = 494 and -508, respectively, Tables 2 and 3). For the LEO effect, the frequency-dependent values of the vector component of the hyperpolarisability increase with increasing field strength and become extremely large as the applied field, R, approaches the transition energy, Rng.The predicted value at R = 2.08 eV, which is very close to the transition energy, an,,at 2.082 eV, is ca. lo1 (Table 3) which clearly demonstrates the importance of the R -R,, recipro-cal term in eqn.(1). In contrast, large values of ca. 106 are calculated for the SHG effect both at the second harmonic frequency, where R,, approaches 2R, and at the fundamental frequency, where Rngapproaches R, which shows the almost equal importance of the Rng-2R and R,, -R reciprocal terms in eqn. (2).

J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, 90(13), 1853-1855 1853 Non-linear Optical Properties of Organic Molecules Part 14.~-Calculations of the Structure, Electronic Properties and Hyperpolarisabilities of Cyclopentadienylpyridines John 0.Morley Chemistry Department, University College of Swansea, Singleton Park, Swansea, UK SA2 8PP The structures of a series of cyclopentadienylpyridines have been calculated using the AM1 method and reason- able correlations have been found with crystallographic data where available. Subsequent calculations have been carried out on these structures using the CNDOVSB method to obtain dipole moments, transition energies and hyperpolarisabilities. The two methods are found to give widely different values for the ground-state dipole moments.The calculated hyperpolarisabilities suggest that these molecules have considerably superior non-linear optical properties to conventional donor-acceptor aromatics. Poled polymer films containing an active non-linear com-ponent have attracted considerable interest as potential devices for electro-optic modulation (EOM) and second har- monic generation (SHG).'-' These materials are generally prepared by copolymerisation of a suitable monomer, such as methylmethacrylate, with an active organic such as a donor- acceptor aromatic containing an unsaturated linkage at the donor group. The resulting polymer is subjected to a strong electric field near the glass-transition temperature to orientate the active component along the direction of the molecular dipole moment, and then cooled in the presence of the same field to yield an orientated non-linear material.Typical aro- matics include derivatives of N-alkyl-4-nitroaniline and 4- alkoxy-4'-nitroazobenzene containing at least one acrylate group positioned at the end of the alkyl chain.'-3 The degree of orientation achieved in the poling process and the non-linear activity of the resulting polymer, however, are a function of a number of factors which include the strength of the electric field, the size of the active molecule, the magnitude of the molecular dipole moment and the molecular hyperpolarisability. Although existing materials have reasonable dipole moments, for example 6.3 D for 4- nitroaniline and 6.5 D for 4-methoxy-4-nitroazobenzene,4 molecules with larger values would be expected to show enhanced behaviour provided they also possess substantial molecular hyperpolarisabilities. The present studies have been initiated to explore the potential of the highly polar pyridinium cyclopentadienylide I, the related cyclo-pentadienylides 1,Cdihydropyridine I1 and the azolylidene 1,4-dihydropyridines 111 and IV, a class of molecule with large dipole moments but with unknown non-linear proper- ties.43 I M e-I1 t Part 13: ref. 16. \-/ "9 I11 M e-(,,)=(:DN IV Method of Calculation Molecular orbital calculations were carried out on empirical structures for the cyclopentadienylpyridines I-IV using the AM1 method5 with full optimisation of all bond lengths, angles and torsion angles.The derived structures were then used to calculate the molecular hyperpolarisability using the CNDOVSB method,6 a sum-over-states procedure (SOS) which has been specifically parametrised for SHG applica-tions. A similar SOS approach has been reported by several other a~thors.~-'' As in previous work, all 27 components of the tensor are calculated by the CNDOVSB method, though the most appropriate quantity is the vector component, P, theoretically defined as9 P = Pppp + 5 1(Ppii + Biip) ifp where /3 is aligned to lie along the direction of the molecular dipole moment (p).

The calculated results give C(3)-C(4), C(5)-C(6) and C(7)-C(8) bond lengths of 1,3865, 1.362 and 1.371 A, corre-sponding to double bonds, compared with values of 1.354, 1.388 and 1.364 A, found in the related crystal structure12 (Table 2).Furthermore, the nominal single bonds at C(4)-C(5) and C(6)-C(7) have calculated values of 1.449 and 1.471 8, compared with experimental values of 1.428 and 1.442 A. However, the geometric correlation is less satisfac- tory for 4-( benzimidazol-2-y1idene)-1 -methyl- 1,4-dihydropyri- dine (IV), where the central C(5)-C(6) bond is predicted to be shorter at 1.400 A than that found in the crystal structure at 1.446 A,13 although the double bond at C(3)-C(4) is well reproduced. Electronic Properties Previous calculations have shown that the CNDOVSB method gives a good correlation between the calculated and experimental transition energies for most conjugated organic systems6 and the result obtained for the pyridinium cyclo- pentadienylide I at 515 nm (Table 2) compares favourably with the experimental value of 511 nm determined in chloro- form.14 The approximations adopted to achieve a good spec- troscopic fit,6 however, result in an overestimation of the ground-state dipole moment and an underestimation of the excited-state dipole moment.6 In the examples explored here, the ground-state dipole moments are considerably larger than those obtained with the AM1 method (Tables 1 and 2).Table 2 Calculated hyperpolarisabilities and excited-state proper- ties of the cyclopentadienylpyridines I-IV obtained with the CNDOVSB method" I 13.3' 8.19 0.18 515 0.73 -55.8 -188.5 I1 10.3' 11.54 8.03 431 1.19 -23.3 -48.2 I11 9.92 6.22 471 1.17 -32.6 -81.7 IV 9.03d 14.14 6.32 521 1.35 -93.9 -344.5 a peXp,pgand pe are the experimental dipole moment and calculated ground- and excited-state dipole moments, respectively (in D); 1 is the transition energy or absorption maximum (in nm); f is the oscil- lator strength; Po and are the molecular hyperpolarisabilities at applied field strengths of zero and 0.95 eV, respectively [units of cm5 esu-' (3.71 x C-' m3 F2)].Ref. 4. Data for the N-benzyl derivative from ref. 4. Ref. 13. Experimental evidence suggests that both methods underesti- mate the dipole moment of the pyridinium cyclo-pentadienylide I at 13.3 Dt by a substantial margin,4 with the CNDOVSB method providing the best result at 8.19 D us.4.63 D for AM1. Furthermore, the CNDOVSB value for 4-cyclopentadienylidene-1-methyl- 1,4-dihydropyridine (11) at 11.54 D is much closer to the experimental value for the closely related N-benzyl derivative4 at 10.3 D than the AM1 value of 6.37 D. However, the AM1 dipole moment of 9.37 D for 4-(benzimidazol-2-ylidene)-1-methyl- 1,4-dihydropyridine (IV) is a better fit with the experimental value13 of 9.03 D than the CNDOVSB result which is too large (Table 2). The excited-state results (Table 2) show that there is a sub- stantial reduction in the value of the dipole moment in moving from the ground state to the first excited state (which is the major contributor to the value of the hyperpolarisability), particularly for the cyclo-pentadienylpyridines I and IV.This is a reflection of the t 1 D z 3.33564 x 10-30~. J. CHEM. SOC. FARADAY TRANS., 1994, VOL. 90 change of direction of charge transfer which takes place in each molecule upon excitation. In the ground state of the pyridinium cyclopentadienylide I the structure is polarised with electron donation from the left-hand pyridinium ring to the right-hand cyclopentadienylide ring with a strongly posi- tive nitrogen atom and with overall charges of k0.56, respec-tively. Upon excitation, there is a reversal of the direction of charge transfer, C(6) becomes strongly positive and the rings are now broadly neutral with values of k0.031 (Fig.1). Calculated Hyperpolarisabilities All of the molecules explored in the present studies gave hyperpolarisabilities which are considerably larger than expected with the negative values reflecting the reversal of the direction of charge transfer upon excitation. The values obtained for I and IV are much larger than those for I1 and I11 and mirror the large changes of around 8 D in their dipole moments upon excitation. Furthermore, the cyclo- pentadienylides I and IV show a larger frequency-dependent value, than the cyclopentadienylpyridines I1 and 111. This arises because the SHG expression for the hyperpolarisability l5 is partly dependent on the reciprocal of terms such as Qeg -2R, where Re, is the transition energy between ground (g) and excited state (e) and R is the magni- tude of the applied field (in this case 0.95 eV or 1300 nm).The closer the transition energy approaches the second harmonic of 650 nm the greater the expected resonance enhancement in p .022t029 .019 b .020 b .020 Fig. 1 Ground- (top) and excited-state (bottom) charge distribu- tions for pyridinium cyclopentadienylide (I) line with the calculated results. The approximate three-fold resonance enhancement for the pyridinium cyclo-pentadienylide I is matched by that for 4-(benzimidazol-2- y1idene)-l-methyl-l,4-dihydropyridine(IV) as the transition energies of both molecules at 515 and 521 nm, respectively, are very similar (Table 2). The overall values predicted for the cyclo-pentadienylpyridines I-IV are considerably larger than those for donor-acceptor aromatics such as 4-nitroaniline with Do = 7.02 and comparable to those of much larger systems such as 4-dimethylamino-/?-nitrostyrene with Po = 37.2 and 4-amino-4’-nitrostilbene with Po = 25.6.6 Conclusions The AM1 method appears to give a reasonable account of the geometry of the cyclopentadienylpyridines I-IV, but the calculated dipole moments differ from those obtained using the CNDOVSB method.The calculated hyperpolarisabilities are large and negative and considerably superior to those of conventional donor-acceptor aromatics. With appropriate functionalisation, the materials offer considerable potential for exploitation in non-linear devices. References 1 Nonlinear Optical Eflects in Molecules and Polymers, ed.P.
