In this paper we use variable reaction coordinate variational transition state theory (VRC-TST) to calculate the reaction rate constants for the two reactions, R1: (OH)3SiOCH2 + CH3 ⇌ (OH)3SiOC2H5, and R2: CH2OH + CH3 ⇌ C2H5OH. The first reaction is an important channel during the thermal decomposit...
