Mode-Specific Energy Disposal in the Four-Atom Reaction OH + D 2 → HOD + D

Abstract: Experiments, employing crossed molecular beams, with vibrational state resolution have been performed on the simplest four-atom reaction, OH + D2 --> HOD + D. In good agreement with the most recent quantum scattering predictions, mode-specific reaction dynamics is observed, with vibration in the newly formed oxygen-deuterium bond preferentially excited to v = 2. This demonstrates that quantum theoretical calculations, which in the past decade have achieved remarkable accuracy for three-atom reactions involving… Show more

“…Quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations on the benchmark polyatomic reaction OH + D 2 were recently performed [10] on the OC potential energy surface (OC-PES) [3] at the conditions of the experiment of Davis and co-workers [4]. The overall agreement was satisfying, but one of the three main vibrational states available was found to be significantly lower than its experimental measure [10].…”
