Resum

A study of the F+CH4 → HF+CH3 reaction using different methods of the chemical reaction theory was presented. It was found that the full-dimensional rate constants were calculated employing the variational transition state theory and using ab initio data. It was suggested that the methyl group was uncoupled to the reaction coordinate. The comparisons with the benchmark F+H2 and analogous Cl+CH4 reactions were also presented.
