Dear all,
Is it possible to make use of Eyring equation to determine the rate constant for
the reaction, whcih the transition state (TS) is more stable than the reactants
(R), i.e. the energy of TS is lower than the R? This reaction coordinate is:
R
--
\ TS
\ /--\
\__/ \
I \__
P
Are there any textbooks and articles for reference?
Regards,
Patrick
