The effect of the solvent composition for water−ethylene glycol (EG) mixtures in the mole fraction range XEG = 0−1 on the kinetics of the ethylenediamine-N,N,N‘,N‘-tetraacetatovanadate(III/II) redox reaction has been investigated at a mercury electrode using convolution potential sweep voltammetry. Capacitance data for the mercury/solvent mixture interface have been obtained at two different concentrations of NaClO4 at each solvent composition. Observed electron transfer rates and transfer coefficients have been corrected for double-layer effects using these data. It has been shown that the change of the corrected electron transfer rates with solvent composition is due to differences in the solvation of the complex and can be described by a two-step solvent exchange mechanism. In addition, Gibbs energies of reorganization have been estimated using the experimental results. The logarithm of the corrected electron transfer rate constant also corrected for variation in the outer sphere contribution to the Gibbs reorganization energy is linearly correlated to the logarithm of the solvent's longitudinal relaxation time (τL). The solvent composition of the solvation shell of the transition state can be calculated from the estimated values of τL in each mixture. As expected, the composition of the solvation shell of the activated complex is intermediate between that of the reactant and product.
