Abstract: Density functional theory B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) method was employed to reveal the micro-kine-tic character of the hydrogen shift isomerization and dissociation reaction of the CH3CH2S. In order to obtain more reliable energies, the single point calculations were carried out at the QCISD(T)/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. The rate constants of the reactions were evaluated by means of the canonical variational transition-state theory(CVT) conjunction with small- curvature tunneling(SCT) correction over a wide range of temperature 200—2000 K at the QCISD(T)/6-311++G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level. In this study, the potential barriers ΔE of the 1,2-H shift, 1,3-H shift, C—C dissociation and β-C—H dissociation reactions of the CH3CH2S radical are 149.74, 144.34, 168.79 and 198.29 kJ/mol, respectively. The 1,2-H shift is the major reaction process when temperature is lower than 800 K, and C—C dissociation reaction became the dominant when temperature is higher than 1800 K, and 1,3-H shift is the major pathway when temperature is between 1300 and 1800 K. The β-C—H dissociaton reacton always play a minor role over the whole temperature region.
