Quantum Theory of Chemical Reactions: II: Solvent Effect, Reaction Mechanisms, Photochemical Processes

The second volume of this treatise lS concerned with three important problems: a) environmental effects b) reaction mechanisms c) photochemical processes An important paper is devoted to the solvation problem. The local field representation of surrounding medium effect is analyzed and an application is made to the study of ambident reaction. A paper is devoted to the study of chemical reactivity in inert matrices and a theory of the effect of rare gas matrices on molecules is presented. Six...
