“…Another investigation considers the methyl radical to assess the accuracy of the spin-projected unrestricted Hartree-Fock method by investigating electron and spin densities (Glaser & Choy, 1993). Furthermore, reactions with other small molecules like carbon monoxide (Das & Lee, 2014), the recombination reaction with OH radicals (Oliveira & Bauerfeldt, 2012), and even the role in methanol synthesis (Zakharov, Ijagbuji, Tselishtev, Loriya, & Fedotov, 2015) have been studied recently. Due to its high reactivity, the methyl radical is involved in reactions which comprise the abstraction of a hydrogen atom so that many recent studies deal with the kinetic properties of these reactions (Mendes, Zhou, & Curran, 2014), (Saheb, 2015), (Tan, Yang, Krauter, Ju, & Carter, 2015).…”
