This mechanism describes the direct TMI decomposition, leading to MI and C2H6 as intermediate points, without forming any radical species throughout this point, as shown in Reaction (11). This route was previously proposed in connection with the bond dissociation energies from TMI. In Table , the overall reaction to generate MI has an exergonic profile with ΔrG lying in the range -16 to -60 kJ/mol, ultimately favouring the precursor reactivity at equilibrium conditions, with Keq ranging from 6.46 x10 +2 to 7.52 x10 +3 . Here, it is valid to mention that these thermodynamic quantities are shared with Mech 1, based on the fact that both mechanisms exhibit the same starting/end points.
