Hydrogen transfer in organic chemistry

The concept of thermal electronic excitement in elementary chemical acts is presented in relation to the reactions of polymer synthesis and reactions of related low molecular weight compounds. The central moment of the book is the discussion of the mechanism of thermo- and photores of hydrogen, which constitutes the essence of many organic and most biochemical reactions. The transfer of hydrogen is represented as a sequential transfer of two elementary particles - an electron and a proton, which proceeds in a specific electronically excited state. The hydrogen transfer reactions are based on an electron-proton effect that provides a decrease in intermolecular excited levels into the area of ​​thermal values ​​(<1 EV) From a new point of view, thermochemical reactions of the transfer of hydrogen atom and radical reactions are analyzed. A special section of the book is devoted to catalytic reactions that give a new interpretation in terms of excited reactionary states. A noticeable specific gravity in the book occupies quantum-chemical calculations of activation energy and spin populists, which are used to predict the speed of the reaction and structure of the product. The fruitfulness of the output approach is indicated in comparison with the traditional transitional method. It is recommended to students, graduate students and teachers in the field of chemistry and physical chemistry, as well as scientists interested in reaction mechanisms
