Preferred Label : intrinsic barrier;
IUPAC definition : The Gibbs energy of activation (Δ‡G) in the limiting case where ΔG 0, i.e. when
the effect of thermodynamic driving force is eliminated. According to the Marcus equation,
the intrinsic barrier is related to the reorganization energy, λ, of the reaction
by the equation: \[Δ {\ddagger}G \frac{\lambda }{4}\];
