Abstract
It is shown that the relative reactivities of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and cyclopropane in complete oxidation decreases with increase in the energy of the bond broken in the rate-limiting step: for alkanes from ethane upwards this is a C-C bond, for unsaturated hydrocarbons it is the π-type C-C bond, and for methane it is a C-H bond.
