Abstract: We present a moving-boundary truncated-grid approach for integrating the time-dependent Schrödinger equation in collinear triatomic reactive scattering (H + H 2 , F + H 2). The grid is pruned by density and gradient criteria, boundary values are extrapolated in the logarithmic amplitude, and propagation proceeds on a compact, time-varying set. Relative to full-grid baselines, this method delivers smooth, small relative- L 2 errors, preserves transmission probabilities and significant interference features, and uses far fewer grid points, achieving up to 1.56-fold shorter wall time. The comparisons with the FG benchmarks in the state-specific energy-resolved probabilities further accentuate the excellent performance of our TG method for practical applications. Computational results demonstrate that this method provides accurate and economical wave packet propagation for reactive scattering. [Display omitted] • MBTG integrates the TDSE for H+H 2 and F+H 2 with adaptive truncated grids. • Density-gradient tests define the truncated-grid boundary automatically. • Log-amplitude extrapolation yields stable exterior values for propagation. • Transmission and interference preserved with small relative errors. • Active grid size is greatly reduced while matching full-grid fidelity.
