Abstract

The charge transfer process was found to be immeasurably fast for the system FeY −2FeY −1 (Y denoting the ethylenediaminetetra-acetate ligand), and, for the system CoY −2CoY −1, to obey second-order kinetics with a specific rate constant of 0·75 hr −1M −1 at 85°C and pH 2. The energy and entropy of activation were found to be 22 kcal/mole and −17 cal/deg.mole, respectively. It is suggested that this difference in lability of seemingly similar systems is explainable primarily in terms of their crystal-field energy-level diagrams and that other charge transfer cases can be correlated similarly.
