The dissociation and isomerization reaction mechanism on the ground‐state potential energy surface for CH 2 ClI are investigated by ab initio calculations. It is found that the isomer iso‐CH 2 I‐Cl can be produced from either the recombination of the photodissociation fragments or the isomerization reaction of CH 2 ClI, rather than from isomerization reaction of iso‐CH 2 Cl‐I. Further explanations of experimental results are also presented. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2004
