Goals

Tunneling treatment in literature: 1D model (Wigner or Eckart)

Use multidimensional treatment to get tunneling right;

Give guidance on 1D tunneling models for peroxy radicals.

Methodologies

Benchmark: CCSD(T)/maug-cc-pVTZ//M052X/6-311+G(2df,2p)

1. Ab initio calculations

2. Tunneling treatment and rate constant calculation

VaG requires vibrational analysis along the whole path!

Select DFT method based on the benchmark

Calculate rate constants with multidimensional tunneling

Select DFT and basis set with least error

Rate constants in the high pressure limit

Summary

High pressure limiting rate constants were computed for H-migration, HO2 elimination of n-propyl peroxy radical.

Wigner’s formula largely underestimates tunneling. Eckart potential gives reasonable predictions.

First multidimensional tunneling treatment of these reactions in alkyl peroxy radical
