18. This assumes that internal rotation is adequately represented in the transition state theory model. However, if these modes were weakly coupled to the reaction coordinate and did not participate in intramolecular vibrational redistribution on a time scale shorter than the reaction time, this would not be true and could lead to an error in the calculated entropy of activation.

Phys. 1993, 98, 5648) but uses the LYP (Lee, C.; Yang, W.; Parr, R. G. Phys. Rev. B 1988, 37, 785) correlation functional and the VWN (Vosko, S. H.; Wilk, L.; Nusair, M. Can. J.
