Biological electron-transfer reactions.
A wide range of biological processes makes extensive use of electron-transfer reactions. Rigorous characterization of a biological electron-transfer reaction requires a combination of kinetic, thermodynamic, structural and theoretical methods. The rate of electron transfer from an electron donor to an electron acceptor through a protein is dependent on the difference in reduction potential of t...
متن کاملA unified diabatic description for electron transfer reactions, isomerization reactions, proton transfer reactions, and aromaticity.
While diabatic approaches are ubiquitous for the understanding of electron-transfer reactions and have been mooted as being of general relevance, alternate applications have not been able to unify the same wide range of observed spectroscopic and kinetic properties. The cause of this is identified as the fundamentally different orbital configurations involved: charge-transfer phenomena involve ...
متن کاملExchange Reactions and Electron Transfer Reactions including Isotopic Exchange Theory of Oxidation-reduction Reactions Involving Electron Transfer
The mechanism for electron transfer is discussed in terms of an atomic motion on a potential-energy surface in many-dimensional atomic configuration space. In the absencc of electronic coupling between the reactants, a surface for the reactants intersects one for the products. Electronic coupling causes the usual removal of this degcncracy and permits the products to be formed adiabatically or ...
متن کاملElectron transfer rates for asymmetric reactions
We use a numerically exact real-time path integral Monte Carlo scheme to compute electron transfer dynamics between two redox sites within a spin-boson approach. The case of asymmetric reactions is studied in detail in the least understood crossover region between nonadiabatic and adiabatic electron transfer. At intermediate-to-high temperature, we find good agreement with standard Marcus theor...
متن کاملKinetics of proton-coupled electron-transfer reactions
The kinetics of proton-coupled electron-transfer (pcet) reactions are reported for Mn4O4(O2PPh2)6, 1, and [Mn4O4(O2PPh2)6] , 1 , with phenothiazine (pzH). Both pcet reactions form 1H, by H transfer to 1 and by hydride transfer to 1 . Surprisingly, the rate constants differ by only 25% despite large differences in the formal charges and driving force. The driving force is proportional to the dif...
