Computational Chemical Dynamics of Complex Systems University of Minnesota Transition states for reactions of alcohols with the hydroperoxyl and methyl radicals CH3OH + HO2 CH2OH + HOOH CH3OH + CH3 CH2OH + CH4 CH3OH + HO2 CH3O + HOOH CH3OH + CH3 CH3O + CH4 We tested several high-quality quantum chemical methods for the thermochemistry and barrier heights of the above reaction systems, and we found that the explicitly correlated CCSD(T)-F12b/jul-cc-pVTZ method is very accurate at a cost that is affordable even for larger systems.
