Correction: High-level ab initio characterization of the OH + CH₃NH₂ reaction

Abstract

Correction for ‘High-level ab initio characterization of the OH + CH₃NH₂ reaction’ by Balázs Gruber et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2024, 26, 28543–28553, https://doi.org/10.1039/d4cp01470g.

After publication of our paper¹ on the benchmark ab initio stationary-point characterization of the OH + CH₃NH₂ reaction, a relevant reference² came to our attention, which studied the same system with combined experimental and theoretical methods. The focus of the two studies was different, as ref. 1 provided a high-level ab initio description of the title reaction revealing new pathways leading to H atom as well as CH₃ and NH₂ radical formation, whereas ref. 2 reported a detailed kinetics investigation for the major H-abstraction channels. In the case of the H-abstraction processes, ref. 1 confirms and shows the uncertainty of the lower-level energy predictions of ref. 2. The two studies support and complement each other; thus, the interested reader may consult with both ref. 1 and 2 to get a more complete picture on the kinetics and mechanisms of the title reaction.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
