Abstract
The rates of formal abstraction of phenolic hydrogen atoms by free radicals, Y* + ArOH --> YH + ArO*, are profoundly influenced by the hydrogen-bond-accepting and anion-solvation abilities of solvents, by the electron affinities and reactivities (Y-H bond dissociation enthalpies) of radicals, and by the phenol's ring substituents. These apparently simple reactions can occur by at least three different, nonexclusive mechanisms: hydrogen atom transfer, proton-coupled electron transfer, and sequential proton-loss electron transfer. The delicate balance among these mechanisms depends on both the environment and the reactants. The main features of these mechanisms are described, together with some interesting kinetic consequences.

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
