29. - dissociation channel (calculated to proceed through a tight, cyclic transition structure) is evident from simultaneous fitting of the two cross sections, cf. Rodgers, M. T.; Armentrout, P. B. J. Chem. Phys. 1998, 109, 1787.
30. The term "superelectrophilicity" refers to the enhanced reactivity of certain dications: Olah, G. A. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. Engl. 1993, 32, 767. We are using it here in a thermochemical context for neutral molecules.
