Graphical Abstract:
 Thermodynamic and kinetic mechanisms of forming six semicarbazones have been investigated computationally by DFT B3LYP method. All the reactions proceed via two transitions and include two consecutive steps: bimolecular and unimolecular. The computed transition steps have varying equilibrium constants values, enthalpy of activation and Gibbs energy of activation, depending on the semicarbazone involved.
