Abstract

A study was performed on generalized transition state theory in terms of the potential of mean force. The derivation of the relationship between the free energy of activation and the potential of mean force was performed for reaction coordinates. The general result was illustrated for rectilinear reaction coordinates, atom transfer reaction coordinates, bond distance reaction coordinates and energy gap reaction coordinates.
