Dozy Chaos in Chemistry: Simplicity in Complexity

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Abstract

The concept of a dozy chaos in the theory of quantum transitions and its applications to the optical band shapes for polymethine dyes and their aggregates, Brönsded relations for proton transfer reactions, and temperature-dependent electron transfer in Langmuir-Blodgett films are discussed as physical simplicities in the chemical complexity.
