The complexation and decomplexation of CO2 with a series of quinones of different basicity during electrochemical cycling in dimethylformamide solutions were studied systematically by cyclic voltammetry. In the absence of CO2, all quinones exhibited two well-separated reduction waves. For weakly complexing quinones, a positive shift in the second reduction wave was observed in the presence of CO2, corresponding to the dianion quinone-CO2 complex formation. The peak position and peak height of the first re-duction wave were unchanged, indicating no formation of complexes between the semiquinones and CO2. The relative heights of both reduction waves remained constant. In the case of strongly complexing quinones, the second reduction wave disappeared while the peak height of the first reduction wave approximately doubled, indicating that the two electrons transferred simultaneously at this potential. The observed voltammograms were rationalized through several equilibrium arguments. Both weakly and strongly complexing quinones underwent either stepwise or concerted mechanisms of oxidation and CO2 dissociation depending on the sweep rate in the cyclic voltammetric experiments. Relative to stepwise oxidation, the concerted process requires a more positive electrode potential to remove the electron from the carbonate complexes to release CO2 and regenerate the quinone. For weakly complexing quinones, the stepwise process corresponds to oxidation of the uncomplexed dianion and accompanying equilibrium shift, while for strongly complexing quinones the stepwise process would correspond to the oxidation of mono(carbonate) dianion to the complexed semiquinone and accompanying equilibrium shift. This study provides a mechanistic interpretation of the interactions that lead to the formation of quinone-CO2 complexes required for the potential development of an energy efficient electrochemical separation process and discusses important considerations for practical implementation of CO2 capture in the presence of oxygen with lower vapor pressure solvents.

Prototropic tautomerism of 2-(3-chromenyl)-1-hydroxyimidazoles with various substituents in the chromenyl moiety (1-hydroxyimidazole – imidazole N-oxide) was studied by means of 1H NMR and IR spectroscopies. It was demonstrated that in d6-DMSO solution, the substituents in the chromenyl ring have no influence on the equilibrium shift: the prevalence of the N-oxide tautomeric form is caused by the possibility of stabilization of the planar structure with the help of the carbonyl group in position 5 of the imidazole ring. In contrast, in the solid state the general effect of the chromenyl substituent in position 2 of imidazole plays the leading role. The increase in general electron-withdrawing effect of the chromenyl moiety leads to the prevalence of the imidazole N-oxide tautomer.
