Some spatiotemporal patterns that have been observed in metal electrodissolution and in electrocatalytic reactions are discussed. The coupling through the electric field plays a major role in the formation of the patterns. This coupling is long range but not global since its strength depends on position. The coupling can be either positive or negative depending on geometry and this type of coupling produces some phenomena not seen in other types of chemically reacting systems.
