Abstract
Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations were used to study the solvation effects in the Cl-+Cl(CH2)nCN. The presence of a strong hydrogen bond in the pre-reactive complex between the nucleophile and the substrate was demonstrated. The thermal effects calculated in the Blue Moon ensemble were discussed and the structural changes were analyzed with conformational methods.
