The present article deals with the numerical details important for a successful implementation of the equilibrial path tracing procedure EQUIPATH. The results of an application to the RHF/6‐31G(d) potential energy surface of butane are reported and discussed. Sixteen saddle points and several valley‐ridge inflection points have been located. For the fragmentation C 4 H 10 → C 2 H 6 +C 2 H 4 two different reaction paths have been found. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Comput Chem 22: 1801–1816, 2001
