Abstract
The dependence of the parameters of the photocatalytic hydrogen formation i n aqueous-alcohol (ethanol or isopropanol) solutions of cobalt cyanide on t he compositions of binary and ternary solvents is studied. Experimental dat a are interpreted using H-1 NMR spectra of the solvents. The experimental o bservations are explained by possible solvation equilibria in the solutions . This photocatalytic system is a hypothetical model for the determination of relative solvation abilities of various organic compounds.
