Rigorous Procedure

This work provides a rigorous procedure, within the framework of the Reaction Class Transition State Theory and the Structure–Activity Relationship for predicting reliable thermal rate constants on-the-fly for hydrogen abstraction by methyl/ethyl from PAHs in 300–3000 K.

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.

Biodiesel is a fuel formed by methyl esters with large carbon chains. The investigation of the hydrogen abstraction reactions of small methyl esters can be helpful to the improvement and development of kinetics models of biodiesel combustion. For this reason, the present study aims to study the thermochemistry and kinetics of hydrogen abstraction of methyl ethanoate using DFT methods and transition state theory. The abstraction reactions by O2, O, HO2, and H were studied with the B3LYP-D3 and M06-2X functionals with cc-pVDZ, ccpVTZ, aug-cc-pVDZ, and aug-cc-pVTZ basis set. At 298 K, the rate coefficients evaluated are in good agreement with the literature’s coefficients and the faster reaction occurs in the presence of O atoms. The hydrogen abstraction by O2 molecule it is not important at 298 K, but should be included in the present study since it should be important at higher temperatures.
