Preferred Label : chemical induction (coupling);
IUPAC definition : When in a chemical system one reaction accelerates another there is said to be chemical
induction or coupling. It is due to an intermediate or product of the inducing reaction
participating in the second reaction. Chemical induction is often observed in oxidation–reduction
reactions, chain reactions, and biological reactions. Sometimes a reaction having
Δ G o 0 is induced by a simultaneous process having Δ G o 0.;
