Biphasic redox chemistry of alpha-tocopherol: Evidence for electrochemically induced hydrolysis and dimerization on the surface of and within femtolitre droplets immobilized onto graphite electrodes

The voltammetric behaviour of α-tocopherol, when immobilized as microdroplets on a basal plane pyrolytic graphite electrode and immersed in aqueous electrolyte is reported. Under these biphasic conditions, the electrochemical oxidation is successfully shown to involve two competing pathways initiall...
