In the original publication [1], there was some mistakes in Tables 2 and 3. Unfortunately, the proof for the Molecules paper occurred when one author was away on summer vacation when thy did not have office facilities, meaning that checking proved to be inadequate.
These corrections do not materially change the conclusions derived from the table. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
The corrected Table 2 and Table 3 appear below.
Table 2. Kinetic comparison of electron transfer rate constants in methanol and effector release.
