In this paper, the initial value problem of nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation is considered. The Dufort-Frankel finite difference approximation for the long time scheme is given for the $d$-dimensional reaction-diffusion equation with the two different cases. The global solution and global attractor are discussed for the Dufort-Frankel scheme. Moreover, properties of the solution are studied. The error estimate is presented in a finite time region and in the global time region for some special cases. Finally the numerical results for the equation are investigated for Allen-Cahn equation and some other equations and the homoclinic orbit is simulated numerically.
