Experimental comparison of the Butler-Volmer and Marcus-Hush-Chidsey formalisms of electrode kinetics: The reduction of cyclooctatetraene at mercury hemispherical electrodes via cyclic and square wave voltammetries
Critical analysis of the Butler-Volmer and Marcus-Hush-Chidsey kinetic models is carried out through the study of the first one-electron reduction of cyclooctatetraene in DMSO at mercury hemispherical microelectrodes. This is an atypically slow process due to the conformational distortion taking pla...
