Abstract
Electron Transfer (ET) is one of the most common reactions in chemistry and biology. For the past decade critical comparison between theory1,2 and experiments3-6 has been giving important insight into the dynamical aspects of ET in solution. Contemporary ET theories which are based only upon the solvent polarization relaxation have predicted that the ET reactions are controlled by the solvent fluctuations and the maximum ET rate for a barriers reaction cannot exceed the solvation rates. The dependence of the ET rate constants on the solvation times has experimentally been demonstrated by many authors.
