a

Data are averages of three to five measurements. Values reported as “0” lie within the range ±0.050. Most rate constants with values in the range ±0.200 returned correlation-squared values of less than 0.92.

b

LD, low density (entire); LD-1, low-density phase 1; LD-2, low-density phase 2; HD, high density; LP, low-prodigiosin phase.
