Abstract :
The diffusion-controlled reactions of chemically anisotropic reactants are treated for the simplest model of Solc and Stockmayer (Intern. J. Chem. Kinet. 5 (1973) 733) in the absence of rotational diffusion. Using the dual series relations approach we can find the effective steric factor with any necessary accuracy. A few simple analytical approximations for the effective steric factor are proposed. The derived results we compare with the relevant analytical approximations and numerical calculations available in the literature.
