Summary
The effect of solvent composition (aqueous mixtures of methanol, ethanol, propan-1-ol and propan-2-ol) on the rate constants and activation parameters of the electron transfer between iron(III) and phenothiazine has been investigated. The dependence of the kinetic parameters on the solvent composition is discussed with reference to previously investigated systems.
