| Abstract | The coupling of proton and electron transfers is a key part of the chemistry of photosynthesis. The oxidative side of photosystem II (PS II) in particular seems to involve a number of proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) steps in the S-state transitions. This mini-review presents an overview of recent studies of PCET model systems in the authors’ laboratory. PCET is defined as a chemical reaction involving concerted transfer of one electron and one proton. These are thus distinguished from stepwise pathways involving initial electron transfer (ET) or initial proton transfer (PT). Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactions are one class of PCET, in which H$^{+}$ and e $^{−}$ are transferred from one reagent to another: AH+B→A+BH, roughly along the same path. Rate constants for many HAT reactions are found to be well predicted by the thermochemistry of hydrogen transfer and by Marcus Theory. This includes organic HAT reactions and reactions of iron-tris(α-diimine) and manganese-(μ-oxo) complexes. In PS II, HAT has been proposed as the mechanism by which the tyrosine Z radical (Y$_{Z}$) oxidizes the manganese cluster (the oxygen evolving complex, OEC). Another class of PCET reactions involves transfer of H$^{+}$ and e $^{−}$ in different directions, for instance when the proton and electron acceptors are different reagents, as in AH–B+C$^{+}$→A–HB$^{+}$+C. The oxidation of Y$_{Z}$ by the chlorophyll P680 + has been suggested to occur by this mechanism. Models for this process – the oxidation of phenols with a pendent base – are described. The oxidation of the OEC by Y$_{Z}$ could also occur by this second class of PCET reactions, involving an Mn–O–H fragment of the OEC. Initial attempts to model such a process using ruthenium-aquo complexes are described. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
