Comparison of Theories

If such a multiorbital system were to be used in the Gerischer model then the corresponding distribution of VTox and Wred or Dqx and Dred would look more complicated.

Let us now turn to a comparison of theory with experiment. Comparing (95), (84), and (68), we find that the dependence of the photocatalytic effect K on the position of the Fermi level at the surface s and in the bulk cv of an unexcited sample for the oxidation of water is the same as for the oxidation of CO or for the hydrogen-deuterium exchange reaction. For this reason, such factors as the introduction of impurities into a specimen, the adsorption of gases on the surface of the specimen, and the preliminary treatment of the specimen will exert the same influence on the photocatalytic effect in all the three reactions indicated above. The dependence of K on the intensity I of the exciting light must also be the same in all the three cases. 

This general recipe may be applied to any other photocatalytic reaction. This will require a knowledge of the electronic mechanism of the corresponding reaction in the dark. Such a mechanism is by no means always unambiguous and its choice should be based on a number of subsidiary considerations. The regularities of the photocatalytic effect may prove different depending on the electronic mechanism of the dark reaction involved. In such a case, a comparison of theory with experiment can yield additional information in favor of or against the supposed electronic mechanism. 

We should remember (1) that the activation energy of eh reactions is nearly constant at 3.5 0.5 Kcal/mole, although the rate of reaction varies by more than ten orders of magnitude and (2) that all eh reactions are exothermic. To some extent, other solvated electron reactions behave similarly. The theory of solvated electron reaction usually follows that of ETR in solution with some modifications. We will first describe these theories briefly. This will be followed by a critique by Hart and Anbar (1970), who favor a tunneling mechanism. Here we are only concerned with fe, the effect of diffusion having been eliminated by applying Eq. (6.18). Second, we only consider simple ETRs where no bonds are created or destroyed. However, the comparison of theory and experiment in this respect is appropriate, as one usually measures the rate of disappearance of es rather than the rate of formation of a product.

Table 4-U Comparison of theory with experiment at the 3-carbonyl of A5-androstene-3,17-dione in the complex with As-ketosteroid isomerase see Fig. 4.15.

The central feature of the mechanism is the 3-cuprio(III) enolate Cpop, of an open, dimeric nature, as shown by comparison of theory with experimentation involving NMR and KIEs [80, 81]. This species serves as the direct precursor to the product (Scheme 10.5, top box). In this critical CPop complex, copper/olefin (soft/soft) and a lithium/carbonyl (hard/hard) interactions are present. The open complex may be formed directly, by way of an open cluster (bottom left of Scheme 10.5), or by complexation of a closed cluster with the enone (CPcl). Experiments have shown that the enone/lithium complex (top left of Scheme 10.11) is a deadend species [60, 74].
