โœฆ Synopsis

To assess the importance of the different time scales of non-Debye solvent relaxation on the reaction kinetics of electron transfer reactions we have performed a numerical simulation study for a model system of an activated solvent-controlled electron transfer reaction in the weakly adiabatic regime. For this regime we have shown that the relevant solvent time scale for the reaction can be identified with the time scale in which the solvent initially reacts to a perturbation.

We conducted Monte Carlo simulations of polar solutions by explicitly treating the effect of electronic polarizability of solvent molecules. Based on these data, we calculated the energy-gap dependence of electron-transfer rates. It was found that a considerable asymmetry of the energy-gap dependenc
