Density functional theory method at the level of B3LYP in combination with the polarizable continuum model have been used to compute one-electron oxidation potentials for fifteen different aromatic hydrocarbons derivatives in acetonitrile solution. A linear relation ship was observed between the the o retically predicted redox values and experimentally determined anodic peak potentials of the aromatic hydrocarbons derivatives. A good correlation is also found between experimental anodic peak oxidation potentials and a simple computed property, namely the energy of the high est occupied molecular orbital for neutral or radical cation of the aromatic hydrocarbons in acetonitrile (R2 = 0.95).
