Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of inner shell Marcus terms for amino nitrogen compounds by molecular orbital calculations

TL;DR: Etude cinetique du transfert d'electron entre la perhydrodiethano-1,4:6,9 pyridazino [1,2]-pyridazine et son cation dans l'acetonitrile as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

“Almost Delocalized” Intervalence Compounds

TL;DR: Hush showed how to evaluate the electronic coupling across the bridge from the M-to-M charge-transfer optical absorption band, but did not point out that his classical model causes the extinction coefficient to suddenly drop to zero at a photon energy of 2 H.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solvent effects on charge transfer bands of nitrogen-centered intervalence compounds.

TL;DR: Solvent effect studies show that the optical transition energy (E(op) does not behave as dielectric continuum theory predicts but that solvent reorganization energy may be usefully separated from the vibrational reorganizationEnergy by including linear terms in both the Pekar factor (gamma) and the Gutmann donor number (DN) in correlating the solvent effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adiabatic Electron Transfer: Comparison of Modified Theory with Experiment

TL;DR: Analysis of the data for all six compounds studied indicates that the shape of the adiabatic surface on which electron transfer occurs can be obtained from the charge transfer band accurately enough to successfully predict the electron transfer rate constant and that explicit tunneling corrections are not required for these compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of electron transfer parameters from AM1 calculations.

TL;DR: The utility of AM1 calculations for estimation of the enthalpy part of the Marcus internal reorganization energy and H(ab) (the electronic coupling between the charge-bearing units) is considered for some charge-localized intervalence bis(hydrazine) radical cations, for which these parameters have been experimentally determined from optical measurements.
