The
gas-phase nucleophilic substitution reactions at saturated oxygen X_ _ CH3OY
(X, Y _ Cl, Br, I) have been investigated at the level of CCSD(T)/6- 311_G(2df,p)//B3LYP/6-11_G(2df,p). The calculated results
indicate that X_preferably attacks oxygen atom of CH3OY via a SN2 pathway. The
central barriers and overall barriers are respectively in good agreement with
both the predictions of Marcus equation and its modification, respectively.
Central barrier heights (_HXY_ and _HYX_ ) correlate well with
the charges (Q) of the leaving groups (Y), Wiberg bond orders (BO) and the
elongation of the bonds (OOY and OOX) in the transition
structures.
