| The average <sup>12</sup>C/<sup>13</sup>C ratio per C atom is about 20.5, in the expected range. However, C<sup>13</sup>CC is slightly overabundant with a ratio of 14.8 ± 2.7 whereas <sup>13</sup>CCC is underabundant with a ratio of 12.7 ± 2.8; the latter value corresponds to a <sup>12</sup>C/<sup>13</sup>C ratio per C atom of 25.4 ± 5.6 because of two equivalent terminal C atoms.\\ |
