33. Thermochemistry alone does not dictate the relative rates of H-atom abstractions from OH and CH groups. It is well-known that for equal thermodynamic driving forces H-atom abstractions by oxygen-centered radicals (and other radicals) are several orders of magnitude faster from an OH group than from a CH group.

52. Equation 7 is a remarkably reliable kinetic guideline for "pure" HAT processes (see e.g., Table 3) but it appears to be rarely, if ever, precisely obeyed (see e.g., refs 11, 12, and 29). Too much should not, therefore, be read into any minor kinetic "inconsistencies".
