Higher activation barriers can lift exothermic rate restrictions in electron transfer and enable faster reactions
A widely-assumed principle of chemical reactivity is that, for elementary reactions, higher activation barriers lead to slower reactions. Here, the authors show that some intramolecular electron transfer processes become faster as their apparent activation energies increase, contradicting chemical i...
