Reaction Path
Linked via "classical transition state theory"
Theoretical Foundations
The reaction path is fundamentally defined as the minimum energy path (MEP)/) connecting two stationary points on the PES/). In classical transition state theory, the reaction coordinate is assumed to be an a priori known physical parameter, often related to bond stretching or molecular orientation. However, the modern definition treats the reaction path as an intrinsic geomet…
