a

Average minimum in the D–A distance in the neighborhood of the reaction.

b

CMD applied to the transferring hydride.

c

CMD applied to the transferring hydride and the secondary hydrogen, which rehybridize during the reaction.

d

CMD applied to the transferring deuteride, which replaced the hydride as the transferring particle.
