These phosphorus-centered ion-molecule reactions follow two main reaction routes: bimolecular nucleophilic substitution (S(N)2), leading to Y- + PH2X, and proton transfer, resulting in HX + PHY- products. The S(N)2 route can proceed through Walden-inversion, front-side-attack retention, and double-/multiple-inversion pathways. In addition, we also identify the following product channels: H--formation, PH2-- and PH2-formation, (PH)-P-1- and (PH)-P-3-formation, H-2-formation and HY + PHX- formation. The benchmark classical relative energies are obtained by taking into account the core-correlation, scalar relativistic, and post-(T) corrections, which turn out to be necessary to reach subchemical (<1 kcal mol(-1)) accuracy of the results. Classical relative energies are augmented with zero-point-energy contributions to gain the benchmark adiabatic energies. %Z Export Date: 8 December 2023 CODEN: PPCPF Correspondence Address: Papp, D.; MTA-SZTE Lendület Computational Reaction Dynamics Research Group, Rerrich Béla tér 1, Hungary; email: dorapapp@chem.u-szeged.hu Correspondence Address: Czakó, G.; MTA-SZTE Lendület Computational Reaction Dynamics Research Group, Rerrich Béla tér 1, Hungary; email: gczako@chem.u-szeged.hu
