A primitive description of the functional electron cloud is given and is used to account for the mutual influence beteen coordinating and redox properties. Rules are given for the change in redox properties by coordination and vice versa. It is further shon that the redox potential in a donor solvent is determined by its donor number and an empirical approach is suggested to obtain the electromotive series for any solvent of given donor number. The donor number is also considered important for the ionization of a covalent substrate. Finally a ne classification is suggested for charge-transfer complexes. © 1971, Walter de Gruyter.
