Control of the electrochemical reduction of horminone by pH imposition in acetonitrile

An electrochemical study using transient techniques of a quinone-type natural product, horminone, has been performed in acetonitrile in the presence of two buffer solutions of pH = 17.2 and pH = 15.5. Using linear sweep voltammetry, it was found that at both pH values the reduction mechanism of horminone involves a monoelectronic charge-transfer step, followed by a protonation step and homogene...

The electrochemical reduction of a cadmium cryptate on a mercury electrode in acetonitrile

The reduction of the Cd(2,2,2)2+ complex has been studied in acetonitrile using polarography, chronocoulometry, and cyclic voltammetry. The corresponding kinetic parameters have been calculated and are compared with those obtained for the solvated cadmium cation in the same solvent. The study of the eiectrochemical reduction mechanism showed that the final stable products are the free ligand (2...

Electrochemical Study of Flavonoids in Acetonitrile: Structure-Activity Relationships

Relations between structure, antioxidant capacity and formal redox potentials (E°’) of six flavonoids dissolved in acetonitrile were studied by cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry using a glassy carbon electrode. This work shows correlation between the electrochemical parameter E°’ and the number of hydroxyl groups present in the B ring of flavonoids. Besides, it has been observed th...
