Using free-electron laser infrared irradiation, we studied the interaction between CH<sub>4</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>O through energy dissipation after on-resonance vibrational excitation. The observed changes in the ice structure are largely independent of the vibrational mode excited and suggest an energy-dissipation-induced local heating of the ice. Local heating results in desorption for the two pure crystalline phases of CH<sub>4</sub>, a phase transition to phase II for metastable CH<sub>4</sub> and a 1:10 H<sub>2</sub>O:CH<sub>4</sub> mixture, and segregation for the 1:1 and 1:5 H<sub>2</sub>O:CH<sub>4</sub> ice mixtures. Local heating only occurs when the infrared irradiation is on resonance with a vibrational mode of the system in the case of the pure CH<sub>4</sub> ices, suggesting that a sufficient absorption cross section is required to convert the on-resonance vibrational energy into general heating.</p>","PeriodicalId":59,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Physical Chemistry A","volume":" ","pages":"6883-6895"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144663860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With an open application programming interface (API), LME could be widely applied in the screening of chemical reactions and the modification effect of substituent groups, integrating with other computational chemistry programs. By means of LME, data sets of Diels-Alder (DA) and Claisen rearrangement reactions with different substituent groups have been created from templates of substrates, and the relationships between their chemical activities and corresponding chemical structures are investigated by automatic geometric structure optimization and transition state searching using GFN2-xTB, iEIP, and machine learning methods.

A comparison of the adiabatic and nonadiabatic dynamics results reveals no substantial differences in their overall trends, indicating that nonadiabatic transitions have minimal influence on the reaction dynamics. However, discernible discrepancies were observed between the rotationally resolved integral reaction cross sections obtained from adiabatic and nonadiabatic dynamics at elevated collision energies (<i>E</i><sub>col</sub> = 6.0 eV), demonstrating that nonadiabatic effects on the reaction process become progressively more pronounced with increasing collision energy. This phenomenon can be attributed to the minimum reaction pathway avoiding the conical intersection region between the ground state and excited state potential energy surfaces.</p>","PeriodicalId":59,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Physical Chemistry A","volume":" ","pages":"6805-6814"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144688329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
