Abstract: The reaction mechanisms of HNCS with NH(X3Σ) were theoretically investigated. The minimum energy paths(MEP) of the reaction were calculated by using the density functional theory(DFT) at the B3LYP/6-311++G** level. The equilibrium structural parameters, the harmonic vibrational frequencies, the total energies, and the zero-point energies(ZPE) of all the species were calculated. The singlepoint energies along the MEP were further refined at the QCISD(T)/6-311++G** level. It was found that the mechanisms of the HNCS+NH(X3Σ) reaction involve two channels producing the HNC+HNS and the N2H2+CS products. Channel 1 plays a dominant role and the HNC+HNS are the main products. The reaction is exothermic.
