Abstract
AbstractRelativistically parameterized extended‐Hückel (REX) calculations concerning species and exchange reactions in the system I or I* + I2 are reported, where I = 2P3/2 and I* = 2P1/2. From their experimental data for related halogen systems X + YZ XY + Z, E. B. Gordon, A. I. Nadkhin, S. A. Sotnichenko, and I. A. Boriev [(Chem. Phys. Lett. 86, 209 (1982)] have proposed a conservation rule for the spin‐orbit state (X* → Z*, X → Z). The results of REX calculations, double‐group symmetry analysis, and schematic state correlation diagrams reported here are consistent with the proposed conservation rule. Two of the transition states are linear and the third nearly so, but no Γ1/2–Γ3/2 crossings leading to spin‐orbit conversion are found.
