Chemical reactions and solvation at liquid interfaces: a microscopic perspective
Article Abstract:
Some properties of liquid interfaces, such as surface roughness and microscopic structural constraints, cannot be described by using bulk liquid concepts. Each of these properties can considerably affect the equilibria and rate of surface reactions by modulating the solvation of molecules. The use of second harmonic generation microscopic technique to observe isomerization reaction and ion solvation at liquid surface is described. The concerned interfaces are water liquid/vapor, water/organic phase and water/metal.

Intermetal oxygen, sulfur, selenium, and nitrogen atom transfer reactions
Article Abstract:
An investigation on atom-transfer reactions in which the transferring atom is oxygen, sulfur, selenium or nitrogen, with an emphasis on reactions between two metal complexes, is presented. An analysis of the oxygen reaction processes allows the ranking of the metal complexes inorder of their reactivity and the results suggest that these reactions are influenced by the M=O bond stengths.
