Emily K. Hockey opened discussion of the paper by Kevin M. Douglas: I was wondering about the interaction the bath gas (argon in this case) is having with your reactants before or a er forming your pre-reactive complex. Has this been considered? I think reassessing this interaction in your beam would adjust the depth of the pre-reactive complex wells in the manner you arbitrarily assume in the paper (https://doi. org/10.1039/d3fd00046j). Using an implicit solvation model might also be helpful.Kevin M. Douglas answered: In our low temperature gas expansions, the bath gas only interacts with the reactants and the pre-reaction complexes via collisions, that is it is only acting as a bath gas. Only at signi cantly lower temperatures or higher pressures than those in our gas expansions would we expect there to be any other interactions, such as solvation effects or the formation of bath gas–reagent complexes, as preliminary calculations have shown that Ar is only bound to CH3CHO by less than 2 kJ mol− 1.
