The electroreduction of benzoic acid: voltammetric observation of adsorbed hydrogen at a platinum microelectrode in room temperature ionic liquids.

The electrochemical reduction of benzoic acid in the presence and absence of hydrogen (H(2)) has been investigated using a 10 μm diameter platinum microelectrode in four different room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), namely [C(4)mim][NTf(2)], [C(4)mpyrr][NTf(2)], [C(4)mim][OTf] and [C(4)mim][BF(4...
