49. 31b diameter of ether, benzene, dioxane, and THF are very similar (see Supporting Information). The diameters of acetonitrile and methylbutane are slightly smaller. However, these two solvents have very small quadrupole moments.
50. The correlation coefficient for a plot of the CT state energy vs (∈ - 1)/(2∈ + 1 ) in ether, THF, and acetonitrile is 0.87 for 1 and 0.92 for 2.
51. Inclusion of the 2-methylbutane data points yields regression slopes of -0.91 and -0.93 for 1 and 2, respectively.

54. (c) This correlation is observed only if the dipole moment of the initial state is much smaller than the dipole moment of the CT state.

56. The data indicate that the entropy contribution to ΔG, -TΔS, is less positive for 2 than for 1 in acetonitrile at 300 K. This result is surprising. Although there is no thermodynamic significance to the ratio of two entropies, it is interesting to note that ΔS(2)/ΔS(1) decreases with increasing solvent polarity: the ratios (± 0.1) are 1.4 in diethyl ether, 1.3 in dioxane, 1.1 in THF, and 0.9 in acetonitrile.
