Comment on “Atmospheric chemistry of oxazole: the mechanism and kinetic studies on oxidation reaction initiated by OH radicals” by A. Shiroudi, M. A. Abdel-Rahman, A. M. El-Nahas and M. Altarawneh, New J. Chem., 2021, 45, 2237

The large kinetic discrepancy between computational and experimental studies is resolved using the rigorous stochastic RRKM-based master-equation rate model. Detailed mechanistic insights are also revealed to advance its related applications.
