The last two decades have seen a growing interest in the mechanism of inorganic reactions in solution. Nowhere is this activity more evident than in the topic covered by this review the oxidation-reduction processes of metal complexes. This subject has been reviewed a number of times previously, notably by Taube (1959), Halpern (1961), Sutin (1966), and Sykes (1967). Other articles and books concerned, wholly or partly, with the topic include those by Stranks, Fraser , Strehlow, Reynolds and Lumry , Basolo and Pearson, and Candlin et al ° Important recent articles on the theoretical aspects are those by Marcus and Ruff. Elementary accounts of redox reactions are included in the books by Edwards , Sykes and Benson . The object of the present review is to provide a more detailed survey of the experimental work than has hitherto been available.

The Summer Symposium on Mechanisms of Inorganic Reactions was held in June 1964 at the University of Kansas in Lawrence, under the direction of Professor Jacob Kleinberg. It was sponsored by the Inorganic Chemistry Division of The American Chemical Society. Following the suggestion of the Division, the symposium was patterned after the Faraday meetings and was devoted almost entirely to discussion. Thus, this conference was an experiment to see if this type of meeting would be more valuable than that usually held.
