The one and two-electron oxidations of water soluble ionic zinc porphyrins (Zinctetra-methylpyridylporphyrin, ZnTMPyP, Zinc-tetra-p-sulfonato-phenyl-porphyrin, ZnTPPS, and Zinc-tetra-p-carboxy-phenylporphyrin, ZnTPPC) leading to the porphyrin Π-cations and Π-dications have been investigated in water by electrochemical (cyclic voltammetry and controlled potential electrolysis) and chemical methods. The half-wave potentials for the oxidation are shown to be markedly dependent on the charge on the β-substituents. While the one-electron oxidations for all these porphyrins are reversible, the dication formation leads to labile isoporphyrins as intermediates

The electrochemical reduction of compounds of the type (π-Cp)2Ti(R)Cl (R = Cl, CH3, C6H5, C5F5, OTiCl(π-Cp)2) in ether solvents has been studied using the techniques of polarography, controlled potential electrolysis, and cyclic voltammetry. The one-electron reduction products, presumably (π-Cp)2TiR (R = CH3, C6F5), are initially green in tetrahydrofuran but, in a dinitrogen or argon atmosphere, they form intensely blue solutions which result from the reaction of (π-Cp)2TiR with tetrahydrofuran solvent.

The polarographic behaviour of a series of arylazotheophyllines was studied in aqueous alcoholic buffer media and in DMF-0.1 M LiClO4 solution. The redox study gave evidence that the azo group is electroactive in aqueous as well as non-aqueous media. A mechanism interpreting the electrode process is proposed and confirmed through the identification of the controlled potential electrolysis products, the use of a model compound and the application of Hamett's σ-E relationship. The physico-chemical characteristics of these compounds, viz. the diffusion coefficient, dissociation constant, ionization potential and electron affinity, are also included.

Polarographic reduction of two series of benzoylacetanilides has been investigated in 40% (by volume) ethanolic Britton–Robinson buffers. One series (A) contains substituents on the anilide moiety, and the second (B) has substituents on both the anilide and benzoyl moieties. Polarographic controlled-potential electrolysis data indicate that the electroactive species in both series is the protonated form (ArCOCH2CONHAr′)H+. The reduction half-wave potentials of anilides of series A were found to be independent of the nature of the substituent, whereas those of series B show a good linear relationship when plotted vs. the σ substituent constant of the substituent on the benzoyl moiety (ρ = 0.284, r = 0.995). Values of the acid dissociation constants of the keto (K1) and enol (K2) tautomers of the anilides of series A were calculated; unlike their E1/2 values, the pK1 data show a linear correlation with the Hammett substituent constant, σ. The pK2 values show, however, little variation with σ.

A clam-shaped molecule comprising a Zn(II)-porphyrin and a Zn(II)-cyclam is synthesized and characterized. Its electrochemical behavior and catalytic activity for homogeneous electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO[Formula: see text] are investigated by cyclic voltammetry and compared with those of Zn(II)-meso-tetraphenylporphyrin and Zn(II)-cyclam. Under N2-saturated conditions, cyclic voltammetry of the featured complex has characteristics of its two constituents, but under CO2-saturated conditions, the target compound exhibits significant current enhancement. Iterative reduction under electrochemical conditions indicated the target compound has improved stability relative to Zn(II)-cyclam. Controlled potential electrolysis demonstrates that, without addition of water, methane (CH[Formula: see text] is the only detectable product with 1% Faradaic efficiency (FE). The formation of CH4 is not observed under the catalysis of the Zn(II)-porphyrin benchmark compound, indicating that the CO2-capturing function of the Zn(II)-cyclam unit contributes to the catalysis. Upon addition of 3% v/v water, the electrochemical reduction of CO2 in the presence of the target compound gives carbon monoxide (CO) with 28% FE. Dominance of CO formation under these conditions suggests enhancement of proton-coupled reduction. Integrated action of these Zn(II)-porphyrin and Zn(II)-cyclam units offers a notable example of a molecular catalytic system where the cyclam ring captures and brings CO2 into the proximity of the porphyrin catalysis center.

Two cobalt porphyrins, (OEP) CoII and (TPP) CoII , where OEP and TPP are the dianions of octaethylporphyrin and tetraphenylporphyrin, respectively, were examined as electrocatalysts for the reductive dechlorination of DDT (1,1-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trichloroethane) in N,N′-dimethylformamide (DMF) containing 0.1 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate (TBAP). No reaction is observed between DDT and the porphyrin in its Co(II) oxidation state but this is not the case for the reduced Co(I) forms of the porphyrins which electrocatalyze the dechlorination of DDT, giving initially DDD (1,1-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-2,2-dichloroethane), DDE (1,1-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-2, 2-dichloroethylene) and DDMU (1,1-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-2-chloroethylene) as determined by GC-MS analysis of the reaction products. A further dechlorination product, DDOH (2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethanol), is also formed on longer timescales when using (TPP)Co as the electroreduction catalyst. The effect of porphyrin structure and reaction time on the dechlorination products was examined by GC-MS, cyclic voltammetry, controlled potential electrolysis and UV-visible spectroelectrochemistry and a mechanism for the reductive dechlorination is proposed.

Abstract The dicarboximide fungicide procymidone was studied systematically by using direct current polarography, cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse polarography (DPP), controlled potential electrolysis, and millicoulometry in the universal buffer medium with dimethylformamide as the solvent. Procymidone exhibited a single well-defined polarographic wave in the pH range 2.0–6.0, leading to the formation of the hydroxy compound. The overall reduction process was diffusion-controlled and adsorption-free. The variation of half-wave potential with pH, the concentration of the analyte, and other experimental conditions are described. The reduction mechanism proposed is an overall 4-electron process, in which the dicarboximide group is reduced. DPP was used to determine procymidone in agricultural formulations and wine at the optimum conditions found; a detection limit of 2.4 × 10−9M was estimated. The results obtained by the proposed method were also compared with those obtained by other methods.

The redox behavior of various C-substituted nitrones was investigated by cyclic voltammetry in acetonitrile. These included C-methoxynitrones (MeO)CR = N(O)t-Bu with R = C6H5(1a), p-MeOC6H4 (1b), p-NO2C6H4 (1c), and H (1d) and nitrones YCH = N(O)t-Bu with Y = n-BuS (2a), CN (2b), and C6H5NH (2c). All gave anodic peaks which can be identified as oxidations of the nitrone function. Controlled potential electrolysis of 1a at 1.05 V (SCE) showed that its oxidation was a one-electron process. Reduction of 1a occurs stepwise at −2.08 and at −2.47 V, the same potential for reduction of methyl N-tert-butylbenzimidate (MeO)CPh = Nt-Bu. With electrochemical windows of ca. 3 V, all of the nitrones studied appear suitable for spin-trapping experiments.
