Mechanisms 1 and 2 represent hydride gain, in which the molecule gains what amounts to be one hydride ion. Mechanisms 3 and 4 radical formation and hydride loss. Radical species contain unpaired electron atoms and are very chemically active. Hydride loss is the inverse process of the hydride gain seen before. The final two mechanisms show nucleophilic addition and a reaction using a carbon radical.

Mechanism 1. Hydride transfer occurs by addition of H+ and 2 e
Mechanism 2. Hydride transfer by abstraction of hydride from NADH
Mechanism 3. Radical formation by electron abstraction
Mechanism 4. The loss of hydride to electron deficient R group
Mechanism 5. Use of nucleophilic addition to break R1-R2 bond
Mechanism 6. Carbon radical reacts with O2 and acid to form H2O2
