The values of redox potentials were obtained by setting the potential of Fc+/Fc as 0 V, measured in deaerated CH2Cl2. The counter electrode was a Pt electrode, and the working electrode was a glassy carbon electrode, with a Ag/AgNO3 couple as the reference electrode.
E00 is the energy level of the T1 state.
