Ion pairing in ionic liquids controls the Corannulene reduction mechanism
The electroreduction of corannulene (C20H10) has been investigated in a Room Temperature Ionic Liquid (RTIL) for the first time. In the RTIL 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([Bmpyrr][NTf2]) the resultant voltammetry shows a peak-to-peak separation of 100 mV, and this...
