Abstract

The successful applications of Marcus theory to catalysis by labile metal ions in the base-catalyzed enolization and decarboxylation of oxalacetate and in the ketonization and condensation of enolpyruvate are described. Illustrations are presented describing the prediction of rate constants and the use of the theory in original and expanded versions to gain insight into possible features of a reaction mechanism.
