The reaction paths of the reaction of methyl radical with propanol-2 (i-C3H7OH) were investigated in detail using density functional theory at B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,2p) level. There were seven reaction pathways which form seven products including CH4 + (CH3)2COH, CH4 + (CH3)2CHO, CH4 + CH3CHOHCH2, CH3OH + CH3CHCH3, C2H6 + CH3CHOH, (CH3)2CH-O-CH3 + H and (CH3)3CH + OH. The results of analysis of the reaction paths and thermokinetic parameters showed that methane could be generated from three different channels. The removed H-atom from secondary carbon atom in the propanol-2 molecule is the most favorable of this reaction system. Keywords Methyl, propanol-2, B3LYP, transition state References [1] I. R.

The mechanism, thermochemistry and kinetics of the addition and hydrogen-atom abstraction reactions of the methyl radical with formaldehyde and hydroxymethylene were investigated by ab initio calculations. The potential energy surface (PES) of the reactions were calculated by single point calculations at the CCSD(T)/6-311++G(3df,2p) level based on geometries at the B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,2p) level. The rate constants of various product channels were estimated by the variational transition state theory (VTST) and are discussed for the seven reactions in the temperature range of 300?2000 K and at 101325 Pa pressure. The calculated results showed that all the hydrogen abstraction reactions are more favorable than the addition ones.
