Abstrakt: Context: This project performed quantum chemical computation, through kinetic and thermodynamic analyses to compare relative reactivity, reaction rate, and equilibrium composition from the possible pathways in connection with stabilizer-nitrodioxide reactions to determine the stability of the materials for practical application. Corresponding achievements have promoted the use of N-methyl-p-nitroaniline (MNA) and dinitrophenyl malonamide series (M3, M4, and M5) stabilizers as high priorities for selection.
Methods: The Gaussian 09 program (G09) (Frisch et al 2009) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations with the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) function were performed to obtain related geometric and thermodynamic energy data for the molecular systems in this study. The synchronous transit-guided quasi-Newton method (STQN) (Peng and Schlegel Isr J Chem 33:49, 1993) was applied through the QST3 procedure to identify single imaginary frequency-valued transition-state species. The related reaction rate constant (k) and pre-exponential factor (A) were obtained, based on transition state theory (Su 2008), using Eqs. 11 and 12.
