Abstract:

Recent advances in experimental and theoretical studies of liquid interfaces provide remarkable evidence for the unique properties of these systems. In this review we examine how these properties affect the thermodynamics and kinetics of chemical reactions which take place at the liquid/vapor interface and at the liquid/liquid interface. We demonstrate how the rapidly varying density and viscosity, the marked changes in polarity and the surface roughness manifest themselves in isomerization, electron transfer and photodissociation reactions.
