Problems of a Quantum Theory of Charge Transfer Reactions at the Interface Between Two Immiscible Liquids

  • Chapter
The Interface Structure and Electrochemical Processes at the Boundary Between Two Immiscible Liquids

Abstract

The theory of charge transfer processes in solutions is more than two decades old and continues to develop intensively both in respect to solving some theoretical problems of principal importance and from the viewpoint of its application to various systems and processes. The phenomena and processes of the given type, though being quite different in nautre, have some common features which allow us to consider them from a single point of view. One of the important factors inherent to all these processes is the fact that these are strongly influenced by the solvent. A great role of the polar solvent in the formation of the Franck-Condon barrier in electron transfer reactions was supposed for the first time by Libby [1]. This idea was found to be fruitful and became one of the essential components of modern theories of chemical kinetics in solutions. Within the framework of the classical non-equilibrium thermodynamics method this concept was implemented by Marcus [2]. Others use the ideas of a quantum-mechanical theory of non-radiative transitions [3]. The results obtained within the framework of this concept have been presented in a most complete way in Refs. [4–6]. The studies have resulted not only in establishing the physical mechanism of elementary chemical transformations, but also in the methods for their calculation with due account of the peculiarities of specific systems.
