Electron Transfer Reactions Between Organic Species

  • Chapter
Electron Transfer Reactions in Organic Chemistry

Part of the book series: Reactivity and Structure Concepts in Organic Chemistry ((REACTIVITY,volume 25))

Abstract

As for metal ion reagents, we can make a formal distinction between organic one-electron and two-electron reagents, corresponding to open-shell (radicals and radical ions) and closed-shell species (even-electron molecules and ions). Also here this distinction is neither rigorous nor very fruitful, except possibly for purpose of classification; the occurrence of outer-sphere ET is again dependent on the relative redox reactivity of the species involved and the availability of alternate pathways, and the one- or two-electron distinction is seldom important.
