    four critical steps starting from the initial reactants (CH4, NH4+, oxo): C-H activation followed by a hydrogen atom abstraction (HAA) from CH4 to form some combination of the hydrogenated complex, ammonium or ammonia, and a methyl radical; a radical rebound (RR) to form a methanol adduct and ammonium; methanol dissociation from the metal; and catalysis regeneration via oxygen atom transfer. We modeled these steps as stationary points throughout the reaction coordinate, each point consisting of…

    mechanism for this test’s reaction (see Mechanism 1.B), it can be concluded that compound A must be some kind of aldehyde (since Mechanism 1.B point out that the reaction relies on the aldehydes ability as a reducing agent in order to reduce silver ammonium nitrate into elemental silver). Therefore, it can be speculated that compound A is benzaldehyde, and that at the very least compounds B and C cannot be aldehydes. This kind of test works very well with the given possible identities since the…
