Abstract
An effective reaction coordinate is introduced and a self-consistent algorithm is proposed for the calculation of the potential barrier profile of the adiabatic electron transfer reaction in a polar solvent, taking into account electron wave functions of reagents with respect to the media polarization. A change in the functions when moving along the reaction coordinate reduces significantly the activation barrier and increases the reaction rate.
