As a Rossi watcher, I notice what he has done historically. All of his low temperature reactors have been lined with a thin layer of lead. Rossi states that the reaction emits low energy photons in the 10's of keV up to about 100keV. This is consistent with the amount of lead that has been seen in photos of his reactors. I don't believe this lead would be needed if the photons from the reaction were only in the neighborhood of 300eV. The 300eV photons would be absorbed in the nickel-rich fuel, and the containing stainless cell.
While the reaction you are describing could exist (I am unqualified to say), I don't believe it is consistent with the "Rossi effect".
