Electricity and Light Promoted ET

  • Chapter
Electron Transfer Reactions in Organic Chemistry

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

Abstract

We have several times encountered ET phenomena caused by the action of electricity or light upon chemical species, and shall now treat these areas in more detail. As pointed out in Chapter I, electrochemistry is the science of ET, as has been recognized for a long time, whereas the all-pervasive nature of photochemical ET has been generally appreciated only during the last 10–15 years. Also, the ET character of the converse process, emission of light from thermal reactions or chemiluminescence, has only been recognized recently.
