A theoretical analysis of reversible and kinetically controlled electrode reactions in conditions of alternative differential multi-pulse voltammetry (ADMPV) is presented. The degree of reversibility, as well as symmetry of the electron transfer reaction, can be estimated by visual inspection of the ADMP voltammogram. The values of electron transfer coefficient and the standard rate constant of a simple electrode reaction Ox + ne− ⇄ Red, can be determined from the slope of linear dependence of the peak currents ratio on the logarithm of pulse duration. The criteria for recognition of reversible and kinetically controlled electrode reactions by alternative differential multi-pulse voltammetry are given.

The electroreduction of 4- and 5-substituted benzofurazans was investigated at a platinum electrode in acetonitrile. Standard potentials for the reactions were linearly related to the energy of the lowest vacant molecular orbital as estimated by Hückel theory. Standard rate constants for electron transfer decreased as standard potentials in the series became more cathodic. This decrease is attributed to a double layer effect. No correlation was obtained between standard rate constants and observed hyperfine splitting constants for the anion radicals.

A two-step reduction of Zn(II) ions at the dropping mercury electrode in 1 M NaClO4/0.001 M HClO4 in the presence of N,N'-dialkylthioureas was examined in wide potential and frequency ranges, using the impedance method. The rate constant of the first electron transfer increases with increasing concentration of N,N'-dialkylthioureas, whereas that of the second electron transfer depends largely on the double layer effects, particularly, on the orientation of molecules on the electrode surface.

The influence of bromide ions and temperature on the standard rate constants of the Eu(III)/Eu(II) redox reaction was determined. Cyclic voltammetry was used for the calculation of the kinetic parameters. It was shown that in NaCl-KCl (equimolar mixture)-NaBr (15 wt%)-EuCl3 melts increase of the temperature from 973 K up to 1023 K leads to a drastical decrease of the standard rate constant ks for the Eu(III)/Eu(II) redox reaction. This unusual influence of the temperature on the ks value was explained by a change of the electron transfer mechanism. It is suggested that at 1023 K another mechanism becomes dominant - the transfer of electrons through dissolved bromine in the melt. Bromine appeared in the melt due to the decomposition of chloride-bromide or bromide complexes of Eu(III), and the concentration of bromine in the melt increased with the growth of temperature.
