Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Physical Physical Sciences Science & Technology
We observe tight and loose ion pairs in bimolecular electron transfer with ultrafast infrared spectroscopy. For large exergonicity tight donor-acceptor pairs do not rearrange into loose complexes before the reaction proceeds, contrasting generally accepted models.
