✦ Synopsis

The model calculations of the commented paper are based on our experimental reaction rates for the H-transfer in acridinedoped fluorene single crystals. High experimental accuracy (reported one order of magnitude too low) is crucial to realize that precise rates in a specific low-temperature region provide the most critical test of the theoretical concept used. This has been ignored by the authors with the wrong argument of low accuracy of the experimental data.

The consequences of the inaccuracy and some deliberate omissions in reporting experimental data of Prass and Stehlik in the commented paper are considered. We examine the concept that specific low-temperature data provide the most critical test for the theoretical model used. Our argument of why the
