Journal ArticleDOI
Thermochemistry of Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer Reagents and its Implications
TL;DR: This issue discusses proton-coupled electron transfer or PCET processes, which are central to a great many chemical and biochemical processes, from biological catalysis and energy transduction, to bulk industrial chemical processes, to new approaches to solar energy conversion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proton-coupled electron transfer: a reaction chemist's view.
TL;DR: Intrinsic barriers for PCET can be comparable to or larger than those for ET, and many PCET/HAT rate constants are predicted well by the Marcus cross relation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A soluble copper–bipyridine water-oxidation electrocatalyst
TL;DR: Electrochemical, electron paramagnetic resonance and other studies indicate that the catalyst is a soluble molecular species, that the dominant species in the catalytically active solutions is (2,2'-bipyridine)Cu(OH)(2) and that this is among the most rapid homogeneous water-oxidation catalysts, with a turnover frequency of ~100 s(-1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding Hydrogen Atom Transfer: From Bond Strengths to Marcus Theory
TL;DR: The development of a conceptual framework for HAT with a Marcus theory approach is described, which shows that the Marcus approach based on free energies and intrinsic barriers captures much of the essential chemistry of HAT reactions.
