%X In the introduction the concept of oxidation-reduction is well defined. In the discussion a systematic classification of electron transfer reactions is made based on the nature of the redox partners. There were total of eight sets of redox reactions under two main headings four sets for each class of outer sphere electron transfer reactions, and inner sphere electron transfer reactions: containing (i) Inorganic oxidant and inorganic substrate, (ii) Inorganic oxidant and organic substrate, (iii) Organic oxidant and organic substrate, and (iv) Organic oxidant and inorganic substrate. At least one example for each set of redox partners is given and well explained. At the end an example of atom transfer reaction, inner sphere synchronous three and four electron transfer reactions are included.
