Discussion on Electronic Activity and Molecular Activation Processes in Chemical Reactions

Activation processes have been studied in many different contexts, in this lecture we will discuss two essential aspects: energetic and electronic. Among many theoretical models intended to rationalize chemical processes and the energies involved, the Marcus equation is one of the most successful analytic forms that provides nice ways to rationalize the activation energy and to characterize the transition state through the Hammond postulate and…
