采用密度泛函理论中的UB3LYP方法, 对Ta 采用相对论校正赝势基组(SDD), C, O采用6-311+G(3d)基组, 计算研究了气相中不同自旋态下Ta+活化CO2分解反应的微观机理. 计算结果表明, Ta+活化CO2分解反应是典型的自旋禁阻反应, 以五重态进入反应通道, 经过五重态势能面到三重态势能面的系间窜越(ISC), 最终产物TaO+, CO以三重态离开反应通道. 运用Harvey方法优化出最低能量交叉点(MECP), 并计算了MECP处的自旋-轨道耦合(SOC)常数(204.94 cm-1), 较大的SOC值说明了在MECP处的自旋-轨道耦合作用较强, 势能面的交叉降低了自旋禁阻反应能垒, 为反应提供了一条低能反应路径. 运用Landau-Zener跃迁几率公式计算了MECP处系间窜越几率, 较大的系间窜越几率说明了该自旋禁阻反应速率较快.

Spin-forbidden reaction mechanism of CO2 cleavage activated by Ta+ in the gas phase was investigated, using density functional theory (DFT, UB3LYP) with the relativistic effective core potential (ECP) of basis sets (SDD) for Ta and the 6-311+G(3d) basis set for C and O. The calculation results show that Ta+ initially close to CO2 on the quintet surface, then the product, TaO+ and CO, exit the channel on the triplet surface. The process involves an intersystem crossing (ISC) from the quintet to the triplet state. The minimum energy crossing point (3-5MECP) is located by using the methods of Harvey et al. The large spin-orbit coupling (SOC) constant (204.94 cm-1) calculated shows that the spin-forbidden reaction takes place easily. The intersystem crossing probability estimated at MECP indicate that the spin-forbidden reaction have a rapid rate.
