Abstract
A model description of intermolecular electron transfer and intramolec ular electron transfer (and related to it methyl transfer) reactions i n organic solids are discussed. As a first step towards quantitative m odeling of the reactions we construct potential energy surface in the phonon normal coordinates space. A role of coupling of the transferred electron to intramolecular vibrations and excitons which determine di electric properties of the crystal is stressed. Transformations ''neut ral-ionic'' in TTF-Chloranil and zwitterion formation in Methyl p-Dime thylaminobenzenesulfonate are discussed as examples.
