Vm. Mamaev et al., INFLUENCE OF TUNNELING ON THE RATIO OF THE ACTIVATION RATE CONSTANTS OF C-C AND C-H BONDS IN ETHANE BY A BARE PALLADIUM ATOM, Mendeleev communications, (5), 1996, pp. 203-205
Dynamic modeling of ethane oxidative insertion to a bare palladium ato
m at both C-C and C-H bonds has demonstrated the influence of quantum
effects in the more growth of the rate constant of C-H bond activation
compared to C-C activation.
