The hydrogen abstraction reactions of OH radicals with CH₃CH₂CH₂Cl and CH₃CHClCH₃ (R2) have been investigated theoretically by a dual-level direct dynamics method. The optimized geometries and frequencies of the stationary points are calculated at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. To improve the reaction enthalpy and potential barrier of each reaction channel, the single point energy calculation is performed by the BMC-CCSD method. Using canonical variational transition-state theory (CVT) with the small-curvature tunneling correction, the rate constants are evaluated over a wide temperature range of 200-2000 K at the BMC-CCSD//B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. For the reaction channels with the negative barrier heights, the rate constants are calculated by using the CVT. The calculated total rate constants are consistent with available experimental data. The results show that at lower temperatures, the tunneling correction has an important contribution in the calculation of rate constants for all the reaction channels with the positive barrier heights, while the variational effect is found negligible for some reaction channels. For reactions OH radicals with CH₃CH₂CH₂Cl (R1) and CH₃CHClCH₃ (R2), the channels of H-abstraction from -CH₂ - and -CHCl groups are the major reaction channels, respectively, at lower temperatures. With temperature increasing, contributions from other channels should be taken into account. Finally, the total rate constants are fitted by two models, i.e., three-parameter and four-parameter expressions. The enthalpies of formation of the species CH₃CHClCH₂, CH₃CHCH₂Cl, and CH₃CH₂CH₂Cl are evaluated by isodesmic reactions
