40. HOM = (yields of heterolytic products)/(yields of homolytic products), see for example: J. H. Espenson, Chemical kinetics and reaction mechanisms, 2nd ed., Mc-Graw-Hill, NY, 1995; however, our data clearly show that the product yields depends on both the acidity and MeOH concentration, i.e., Scheme 2, and hence the above relationships are no longer valid.
