Concluding Remarks Relevance to Photosynthetic Model Systems. 

Photosynthetic model systems have recently been exhaustively reviewed elsewhere [5, 6, 218] and a number of results are given in the latest literature [219-224]. The attention of the researchers is focused on topics such as electron-transfer chain and energy dissipation within models (the first step is the transfer of an electron from a metallotetrapyrrole moiety yielding a cation radical) the dependences of the electron-transfer rate constant on the driving force of the process distance and mutual orientation of donor and acceptor sites influences of membranes and medium (solvent) properties, etc.

One of the simplest kinds of photosynthetic model systems which may be envisaged is a solution of a photochemically active pigment and an additional electron donor or acceptor. The following sorts of reactions can be studied ...
