Abstract
A recomputation has been made of the C–H bond strength in CH4 by the method of Voge, using more recent data. The premises on which the calculations are based have been examined and it is concluded that the recalculated value (∼103 kcal.) is in good agreement with the value of 94.8 kcal. given by Burton when the approximations used in the Voge method are taken into account.Keywords
