Comparison of Photoelectron Transfer in Solution and the Solid State for Two Intervalence Radical Cations

摘要

The optical diffuse reflectance and solution spectra of two bis-hydrazine radical cationic intervalence compounds have been compared. The results are consistent with an ion-pairing increase and an "effective polarity" in these crystals that is not far from that of acetonitrile or other polar solvents.
