Abstract

Solvation of electrons in polar liquids is a well-investigated phenomenon. Advanced and elegant observations upon the properties of such species have become abundant.1–4 But there is as yet no single model in terms of which the observations may be rationalized and fresh phenomena predicted. Solvated electrons have been observed in various solvent systems; we will deal in this chapter only with the hydrated electron, because it is this that has the greatest relevance to electrochemists interested in discussions of quantal treatments.
