Abstract
The profile of the reaction CH3OH + MOH → CH3OM + H2O in the presence of an alkali (MOH, M = Li, Na, K) was investigated by the ab initio quantum-chemical method for the gas phase (with allowance for the solvent) within the continuum model. The proton transfer and the formation of the alkaline methoxide molecule in MOH/DMSO/CH3OH systems (M = Li, Na, K) in the alkali-methanol pre-reaction complexes can take place without their preliminary dissociation and are barrier-free reactions.
