The Life Cycle of Radical Pairs in Homogeneous Solution

8 THE LIFE CYCLE OF RADICAL PAIRS IN HOMOGENEOUS SOLUTION 

Unlike constrained RPs, those in homogeneous solution present a unique situation in that radicals that escape from their geminate cage to bulk solution have the possibility of encountering other radicals that have shared the same fate. Such an encounter leads to the formation of a new RP. Such an RP is formed through free diffusion and is referred to as a freely diffusing RP or f-pair. Until recently, only a single publication
