“…On the other hand, while in the case of C 5 H 12 and C 6 H 14 the orders versus hydrogen were highly negative, between )0.5 and )3.4 [35,38], depending on the reaction; in the case of C 7 H 16 , the orders were positive between +0.2 and +1.8 [36,37]. The only way to resolve this contradiction was to modify the kinetic schemes that were proposed previously [31,32,39]. In fact, in these schemes, they both involve a series of dehydrogenation steps, all equilibrated, followed by the rate-determining step, which is the skeletal rearrangement of the highly dehydrogenated species.…”
