Theoretical study of the oxidation mechanism of NH2
Résumé
A theoretical prediction of the kinetic parameters of the NH2 + O2 [rlhar2] NH2O2 reaction was made using the transition-state theory method from the structural, energetic and spectroscopic data calculated using a 4-31G basis set. In the light of this theoretical study this oxidation mechanism is improbable at ordinary temperatures. © 1982.
