Volumes of activation for outer-sphere electron transfer between cobalt-(II) and -(III) in solution
Abstract
The volume for outer-sphere electron transfer between Co(terpy)22+ and Co(bpy)33+(terpy = 2,2′,6′,2″-terpyridiene, bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) in dilute aqueous solution (–9 ± 1 cm3 mol–-1 at 25 °C and ionic strength 0.01 M) is close to that predicted by the conventional Hush–Marcus theories.
