Abstract
The model rebound step of alkane hydroxylation exhibits a low-spin (LS) rebound with no barrier, but shows a barrier for the high-spin process (HS). Free radicals are expected primarily in the high-spin rebound. Data from radical clock experiments are examined in terms of this two-state scenario.
