Abstract:Abstract.While ionization of some polyatomic molecular liquids (such as water and aliphatic alcohols) yields so-called "solvated electrons" in which the excess electron density is localized in the interstices between the solvent molecules, most organic and inorganic liquids yield radical anions and cations in which the electron and spin densities reside on the solvent molecule or, more commonly, a group of such molecules. The resulting multimer ions have many unusual properties, such as high rates of diffusive… Show more
