Electron transfer parameters are extracted from the optical spectra of intervalence bis(hydrazine) radical cations. Compounds with 2-tert-butyl-3-phenyl-2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octyl-containing charge-bearing units that are doubly Linked by 4-sigma -bond and by 6-sigma -bond saturated bridges are compared with ones having tert-butylisopropyl- and diphenyl-substituted charge bearing units and others having the aromatic units functioning as the bridge. Solvent effect studies show that the optical transition energy (E-op) does not behave as dielectric continuum theory predicts but that solvent reorganization energy may be usefully separated from the vibrational reorganization energy by including linear terms in both the Pekar factor (gamma) and the Gutmann donor number (DN) in correlating the solvent effect. Solvation of the bridge for these compounds is too large to ignore, which makes dielectric continuum theory fail to properly predict solvent effects on either E-op or the free energy for comproportionation.
