A Theoretical Investigation of the Plausibility of Reactions between Ammonia and Carbonyl Species (Formaldehyde, Acetaldehyde, and Acetone) in Interstellar Ice Analogs at Ultracold... by Lina Chen (87129)

“…However, a new pathway emerged in more realistic clusters that involves at least one barrierless step for two of the carbonyl species considered here: ammonia reacts with formaldehyde and acetaldehyde to form a partial charge transfer species in small clusters (4H₂O) and a protonated hydroxyamino intermediate species in large clusters (9H₂O, 12H₂O); modest barriers that decrease sharply with cluster size are found for the analogous processes for the acetone-NH₃ reaction. …”
