A new π-conjugated copolymer containing tetrathiafulvalene vinylogue and pyrene repeat units was synthesized and exhibited reversible redox activity, while the self-aggregation behaviour in the solution phase was responsive to external stimuli such as solvent and pH value.

Standard redox potentials, E0s, and redox processes of U, Np and Pu ions in acidic aqueous solutions are reviewed and evaluated critically. The E0sof reversible redox processes, MO22+/MO2+ and M4+/M3+ (M: U, Np or Pu) adopted are those proposed mainly by Riglet et al. on the basis of the precise correction of formal potentials, E0's, according to the improved theoretical approach to estimate the activity coefficient. Electrode processes of the U, Np and Pu ions are discussed in terms of current-potential curves, measured so far by polarography, voltammetry or flow coulometry. Special attention is payed to the irreversible MO2+/M4+ reactions. Disproportionation reactions of MO2+ are also discussed. New substances are introduced as intermediates during reductions of MO2+ to M4+ or disproportionations of MO2+.CONTENTSIntroductionStandard redox potentials for uranium, neptunium and plutonium ions in acidic aqueous solutions2.1 Evaluation of E0 from E0' determined by electrochemical measurements2.2 Temperature dependence of E0Redox reactions of uranium, neptunium and plutonium in acidic aqueous solutions investigated by polarography or voltammetry3.1 Uranium3.2 Neptunium3.3 Plutonium3.4 Disproportionation of NpO2+, PuO2+, Np4+ and Pu4+3.5 Reduction of MO2+ and reduction intermediatesRedox reactions of uranium, neptunium and plutonium in acidic aqueous solutions investigated by flow coulometry4.1 Electrode processes of the uranium, neptunium and plutonium ions investigated by flow coulometry at the column electrode at the column electrode4.2 Disproportionation of MO2+ during the electrolysis by flow coulometry4.3 Reduction mechanisms of MO2+ (M = Np or Pu) and reduction intermediates investigated by flow coulometryConclusionsList of abbreviationsAppendixReferences

Elementary considerations indicate that thiol radicals, RS•, should have a high redox potential [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]However, the equilibrium [4],[Formula: see text]which is established in the presence of excess RS−, would convert RS•to [Formula: see text] which is a reducing species. Experimentally it was demonstrated that thiol radicals made by γ radiolysis of β-mercaptoethanol solutions effected two-electron oxidation of dihydroflavin FlH2 at pH 6.3 and of FlH− at pH 8. On the other hand, [Formula: see text] readily reduced Fl to FlH2 or FlH− as expected. At pH 9, photostationary states were established after a few minutes radiolysis and the ratios [FlH−]ss/[Fl]ss were a function of [Formula: see text] The main reactions occurring were:[Formula: see text]The values of k19 and k22 were both large. The ratio k19/k22 was ∼0.8 for lumiflavin and ∼0.3 for flavin adenine dinucleotide. The cyclic disulphide anions of lipoamide and dithiothreitol [Formula: see text] also effected two-electron reductions of flavins. However, the protonated form of [Formula: see text] oxidized FlH2, and the photostationary ratio [FlH−]ss/[Fl]ss was an approximate linear function of [Formula: see text]. The implications of the observed changes in redox properties of sulphur radicals on complexation with RS− and protonation were briefly considered.Des considérations élémentaires indiquent que les radicaux thiyles, RS•, doivent avoir un potentiel rédox élevé [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]

Ferrocene is chemically robust and readily functionalized which enables its facile incorporation into more complex molecular systems. This coupled with ferrocene's reversible redox properties and ability to function as a “molecular ball bearing” has led to the use of ferrocene as a component in wide range of non-interlocked synthetic molecular machine systems.
