Abstract
A lactone ring confers unusual stability to a diphenylmethyl-like radical that is virtually unreactive toward oxygen. Thus, the radical derived from HP-136 is about 10,000 times less reactive than typical carbon-centered radicals. A reversible reaction with oxygen is proposed by analogy with triphenylmethyl; however, the association constant is about 1000 times smaller for HP-136 than for triphenylmethyl. While the lactone ring greatly influences the reactivity, the spectroscopy of the HP-136-derived radical is in line with that expected for a substituted diphenylmethyl radical.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
