The effect of the polarity of seven solvents (c = 2-60) on the rate of ozone reactions with stilbene and ally1 chloride has been studied. The data show that the rate of the reaction is insensitive to the medium polarity. The results of earlier publications are revised and are shown to be in agreemen

Recently Kakitani and Mataga claimed that the free energy dependence of electron transfer rates in polar solvents could be explained by taking into account the dielectric saturation effect of polar solvents. It is shown that the basic assumption of their model is incorrect. The correct treatment of
The free energy change of an electron transfer reaction in a polar solvent is rigorously analyzed within the framework of the dielectric continuum model. An appropriate expression for the electrostatic energy between the two product ions separated by R is derived. The present result does not support
