Hydrogen tunneling makes H-abstraction reactions by C2H, OH, and CN competitive in TMC-1 despite low individual rates, affecting aromatic abundance predictions.
The CH₃OH/CH₃CN ratio in the S68N outflow is constant at ~100-200 and matches gas-phase astrochemical models only when cosmic-ray ionization rates are raised to ~10^{-14} s^{-1}.
