Abstract

The reactions of BF + OH and BO + HF are critical reactions in the reaction mechanism of fluorine-enriched boron combustion.1 In this study, ab initio multiconfigurational methods have been used to calculate energies, optimized geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies and zero-point energies for reactants, products and intermediates of these reactions. Results for the following reactive pathways will be discussed:
