74. The π-carbonyl bond energy was calculated by a method similar to that in ref 31 for the π-bond energy of ethylene. The heat of the reaction methoxy radical to formaldehyde and hydrogen atom is calculated to be 36.2 kcal/mol by the group additivity method of Benson.31 With this value and the O-H bond dissociation energy of methanol of 104.4 kcal/mol 33 one obtains 68.2 kcal/mol for the π-carbonyl bond energy in formaldehyde.
