Abstract
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the magnetic field and magnetic isotope effects on the products of organic reactions. The chapter discusses reactions of radical pairs and examines the spin states of radical pair systems as archetypes. The crucial condition for observation of magnetic field effects is a competition between two processes: one of the processes must be magnetic field dependent and the other is magnetic field independent. As for magnetic field effects, magnetic isotope effects are generally very small or negligible in homogeneous solution, but may become significant in microheterogeneous environments, such as micelles. The chapter illustrates an example of a magnetic isotope effect involving 17 O, occurring in the thermolysis of endoperoxides of aromatic compounds. The decomposition of certain endoperoxides produces singlet molecular oxygen and the yield of singlet oxygen is magnetic field dependent. Such effects have been observed in many different kinds of chemical systems, and are readily interpreted in terms of the well-established principles of chemically induced magnetic polarization.

Safety of Strong, Static Magnetic Fields

TL;DR: There is no replicated scientific study showing a health hazard associated with magnetic field exposure and no evidence for hazards associated with cumulative exposure to these fields, and the very high degree of patient safety in strong magnetic fields is attributed to the small value of the magnetic susceptibility of human tissues.

Mass Fractionation Laws, Mass-Independent Effects, and Isotopic Anomalies

TL;DR: Isotopic variations usually follow mass-dependent fractionation, meaning that the relative variations in isotopic ratios scale with the difference in mass of the isotopes involved (e.g., δ17O ≈ 0.5×δ18O). In detail, the mass dependence of isotopic variations is not always the same and different natural processes can define distinct slopes in three-isotope diagrams as mentioned in this paper.

Photochemistry of ketones adsorbed on porous silica

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of surface coverage, silica average pore diameter, temperature, applied magnetic fields, and additives on the product distributions have been determined, consistent with a model in which the silica surface consists of two major regions, one consisting of stronger binding sites (active silanol groups) and the other consisting of weaker binding sites(free Silanol groups).
