Abstract
Let R be a commutative ring with identity.A unit u of R is called exceptional if 1u is also a unit.When R is a finite commutative ring, we determine the additive and multiplicative structures of its exceptional units; and then as an application we find a necessary and sufficient condition under which R is generated by its exceptional units.
