Summary The kinetics of the oxidation of iodide by hexacyanoferrate(III) have been studied in different H2O-methanol, t-butanol, ethylene glycol glycerol, glucose or sucrose mixtures. Specific solvent effects are found as shown by the different trends in activation parameters and in the variations of the initial state and transition state chemical potentials as observed in different media. From the results of a multiple linear correlation, it is concluded that the kinetics are controlled by the ionizing power of the solvents, their relaxation times and the outer sphere reorganization energies.
