title: Comparison of photoelectron transfer in solution and the solid state for two intervalence radical cations.
abstract: [structure: see text] The optical diffuse reflectance and solution spectra of two bis-hydrazine radical cationic intervalence compounds have been compared. The results are consistent with an ion-pairing increase and an "effective polarity" in these crystals that is not far from that of acetonitrile or other polar solvents.
