Comments:
Reaction potential energy surface was studied using quantum chemistry and reaction channels were analyzed. Rate constants were calculated over wide ranges of temperatures and pressures using transition state theory, RRKM, and master equation. Modified Arrhenius expressions are presented for individual pressures (0.01 - 100 atm of Ar) in the supporting information for the article. The quoted expression is for the high-pressure limit.
