Abstract

The hyperfine splitting constant A N of nitroxide radical signals in EPR was measured and correlated with several systems of solvent parameters in 26 solvents. The linear correlation data show the dielectric approach is in general not appropriate to determine the properties of solvents. A proper description of solvent effects can be achieved only by the parameters sensitive to the electron charge density redistributions.
