15. For cation reactions, at least two stable species are formed prior to the rate-limiting step; thus, product branching ratios are complex functions of several potential energy barrier heights along each reaction coordinate.
16. 4 was different for reactions of a given metal with cyclopropane and propene, and because C-C and C-H insertion barriers are larger than subsequent barriers, interconversion between C-C and C-H insertion complexes is insignificant.

19. For Mo*, the potential energy barrier heights were both decreased by the electronic excitation energy, 30.8 kcal/mol.
