The effects of adsorption conformation of intermediates on the kinetic parameters of an electrode process mechanism of the electroreduction of chloropyridines on the dme

Theory of Square-Wave Voltammetry of Two-Electron Reduction with the Adsorption of Intermediate

“…Furthermore, the intermediate can be stabilized by the adsorption to the electrode surface [7][8][9][10][11]. This phenomenon was observed in electroreduction of hydrogen [8,9], chloropyridines [12], and paraquet [13], in electrooxidation of bismuth [7], aluminum [14], and methanol [15], in the passivation of cobalt electrode [16], and in the anodic evolution of oxygen [17]. The theory of two-electron reaction complicated by the adsorption of intermediate is developed for pulse and differential pulse polarography [18][19][20][21][22][23] and for impedance measurements [24][25][26], and in this paper the theory is extended to squarewave voltammetry [27][28][29].…”
