Abstract

In this paper, we have carried out a theoretical study on the addition of HCN to methanimine with formamidine or formamide using second-order Moller–Plesset perturbation (MP2) method with 6-31+G(d,p) basis sets. At MP2 level, a high-energy intermediate has been located for each pathway. The addition of HCN to methanimine with formamidine has the lowest free energy barrier according to the calculations at MP2 level.
