Multiproduct reactions in high temperature water: model building and mechanism investigation

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Multiproduct reactions of geraniol with H3O+ and (H2O)6 model in high temperature water (HTW) have been investigated by the use of density functional theory calculations. A model considering both HTW ambient and water molecular is built to investigate the reaction and the results show that the reaction is total acid-base catalyzed in high temperature. The two influence factors have been investigated separately. The energy barrier of this reaction is 205.8 kJ/mol. The results show that the local water number has more effect than overall environment.
