In total, eighteen different systems as a combination of amines and alcohols are taken into account. A modified single-step, termolecular reaction mechanism among amine, alcohol, and carbonyl sulfide is considered. The findings from structural, thermodynamic, and kinetic analyses indicated that suggested reaction mechanisms for the eighteen different systems being studied are thermodynamically feasible, and the organic liquid mixture of BTMG with methanol yields the lowest energy barrier and the highest reaction rate constant in the capture of carbonyl sulfide.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess[No Keyword Available]ArticleQ260313661374WOS:000614073100025
