The mechanism of scandium cation Sc + ( 1 D) insertion into HF, HCl, H 2 O, H 2 S, NH 3 , PH 3 , CH 4 , and SiH 4 has been investigated by ab initio molecular theory. All these reactions involve the initial formation of intermediate complexes followed by an H‐atom migration process via a transition state to insertion products. The Sc + ( 1 D) insertion into eight compound reactions indicate that (i) the reaction with hydride of the right‐hand group is more exothermic than that of the left‐hand group and has a lower barrier, and (ii) the reaction with the second‐row hydride has a lower overall barrier and is less exothermic than with the first‐row hydride. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
