Modeling Diffusion Effects for a Stepwise Two-Electron Reduction Process at a Microelectrode: Study of the Reduction of para-Quaterphenyl in Tetrahydrofuran and Inference of Fast Comproportionation of the Dianion with the Neutral Parent Molecule

This paper presents a study of voltammetry at microdisc electrodes for a stepwise two electron reduction (A + 2e- ⇌B + e- ⇌C) where the relevant formal potentials of the A/B and B/C couples are such that two distinct voltammetric waves are seen. Simulations are used to explore quantitatively the eff...
