In chemistry, charge-transfer (CT) complex, or electron donor-acceptor complex, describes a type of supramolecular assembly of two or more molecules or ions. The assembly consists of two molecules that self-attract through electrostatic forces, i.e., one has at least partial negative charge and the partner has partial positive charge, referred ...
Charge transfer coefficient, and symmetry factor (symbols α and β, respectively) are two related parameters used in description of the kinetics of electrochemical reactions. They appear in the Butler–Volmer equation and related expressions. The symmetry factor and the charge transfer coefficient are dimensionless. [1]
Interpolymer complexes (IPC) are the products of non-covalent interactions between complementary unlike macromolecules in solutions. [1] There are four types of these complexes: Interpolyelectrolyte complexes (IPEC) or polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) [2] Hydrogen-bonded interpolymer complexes [3] Stereocomplexes [4] Charge-transfer complexes [5]
In the 1950s, researchers discovered that polycyclic aromatic compounds formed semi-conducting charge-transfer complex salts with halogens. In particular, high conductivity of 0.12 S/cm was reported in perylene–iodine complex in 1954. [3] This finding indicated that organic compounds could carry current.
An electron transport chain (ETC [1]) is a series of protein complexes and other molecules which transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox reactions (both reduction and oxidation occurring simultaneously) and couples this electron transfer with the transfer of protons (H + ions) across a membrane.
Structure of the charge-transfer complex between pyrene with the electron-deficient 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene. [3] Alternatively, electron-deficiency describes molecules or ions that function as electron acceptors. Such electron-deficient species obey the octet rule, but they have (usually mild) oxidizing properties.

Prussian blue is intensely blue owing to an intervalence charge transfer band. Intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) is a type of charge-transfer band that is associated with mixed-valence compounds. Unlike the usual MLCT or LMCT bands, the IVCT bands are lower in energy, usually in the visible or near-infrared region of the spectrum and is broad ...
