Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) was used to study H 2 release from dodecahydro- N -ethylcarbazole over Pd. Dehydrogenation of the molecule starts from the five-membered ring by weakening the axial C–H bonds adjacent to the N atom. In the adsorption mode identified for dodecahydro- N -ethylcarbazole, the five-membered ring was located on a hollow site and the axial H atoms adjacent to N were positioned atop Pd atoms with an adsorption energy of −95 kJ/mol. The two axial C–H bonds of the five-membered ring showed a large increase in bond distance upon adsorption, from 1.10 to 1.16 Å, that was responsible for the weakening of these bonds. The adsorption mode for dodecahydro- N -ethylcarbazole explained the product distribution obtained from the dehydrogenation reaction with octahydro- N -ethylcarbazole and tetrahydro- N -ethylcarbazole identified as primary and secondary products, respectively. DFT was also used to investigate the structure sensitivity of dodecahydro- N -ethylcarbazole dehydrogenation observed on Pd catalysts. The effect of the ethyl group and N atom on the rate of dodecahydro- N -ethylcarbazole dehydrogenation was also investigated by comparing the adsorption energies of dodecahydro- N -ethylcarbazole with two other H 2 storage candidates, dodecahydrocarbazole and dodecahydrofluorene. The latter compounds had much slower H 2 recovery rates, a consequence of the strong adsorption of these compounds relative to dodecahydro- N -ethylcarbazole.

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
