Abstract
The dinitrogen tetroxide homolytical dissociation constants K DIS are determined in organic solvents. The values are the highest in non-donor and the lowest in n-donor solvents. The variations of K DIS with solvent are interpreted in terms of electron donor-acceptor interactions between dinitrogen tetroxide and electron donor molecules.
