The rate of elementary reactions usually rises with increasing temperature. In rare cases, however, a slowdown is observed instead. One example of this is hydrogenatom abstraction from the iron(II)-tris[2,2'-bi(tetrahydropyrimidine)] complex, [Fe-II(H(2)bip)(3)](2+), by the TEMPO radical. So far ascribed to a strongly temperature-dependent equilibrium constant K-eq, this description does not fully account for the observed rate deceleration. In this work, we dissect the activation barriers of four electron-proton transfers including this exceptional case, by employing the concept of asynchronicity, derived as an extension to Marcus theory, together with the classical Bell-Evans-Polanyi effect. By also accounting for tunneling and statistics, the presented theoretical model yields near-quantitative accuracy. Based on chemically well-defined quantities, this method offers a detailed insight into temperature-dependent kinetics of hydrogen-atom abstraction reactions and may serve as an alternative to the established Eyring plot analysis.
