The voltammetric behaviour of amavadine (AV) was found to be considerably different from that of the complexes of VO2+ with methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA) and iminodiacetic acid (IDA). To get an insight in the rather complicated reduction mechanism of the latter complexes the reductions of V(III) (MIDA) and V(III) (IDA) have been studied for comparison. The species V(III) (MIDA)2 and V(III) (IDA)2 are reduced to the appropriate V(II) complexes in a chemically reversible process. VO(MIDA)2 and VO(IDA)2 are reduced to the same complexes via an ECE mechanism. The investigation of the electroreduction of AV shows that this process is not reversible in the chemical sense. As a probable explanation, the conclusion was drawn that AV and the usual V(IV)O-iminocarboxylato complexes differ in their structures.

Electrochemical oxidation of [V(IV)O(nta)(H2O)]- (H3nta nitrilotriacetic acid) was studied in aqueous solution by means of cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse polarography, and current sampled DC polarography on mercury as electrode material. In the pH-range under study (5.5-9.0) the corresponding V(V) complex is produced by one-electron oxidation of the parent V(IV) species. The oxidation product is stable within the time scale of cyclic voltammetry. The evaluation of the pH-dependence of the half-wave potentials leads to a pKa value for [V(IV)O(nta)(H2O)]- which is in a good agreement with previous determinations. The measured value for E1/2 is very close to the formal potential E0 calculated via the Nernst equation on the basis of known literature values for log Kox and log Kred, the complex stability constants for the oxidized and reduced form, respectively.

The electrochemical reduction process of ZnFe2O4 in NaCl-CaCl2 melts was studied. Thermodynamic analysis shows that the reduction process of ZnFe2O4 is carried out in multiple steps, and it is difficult to reduce Fe3+ to Fe in one step. Electrochemical tests revealed that the reduction process of ZnFe2O4 includes three steps: First, Fe3+ is reduced to Fe in two steps, then Zn2+ is reduced to Zn in one step. The reduction of Fe3+ on the Mo electrode is a reversible process controlled by diffusion, while the reduction of Zn2+ is an irreversible process controlled by diffusion. The influence of electrolysis voltage and temperature on the process of electric deoxidation has also been studied. It is indicated that properly increasing the temperature is conducive to the diffusion of oxygen ions, thereby increasing the deoxidation rate. With the gradual increase of voltage, the reduction process of ZnFe2O4 is ZnFe2O4 → FeO + ZnO → Fe + ZnO → Fe + Zn.

The reduction mechanism of a series of nickel(11) dithiocarbamates has been investigated in dimethyl sulphoxide at the mercury electrode. Under controlled-potential conditions, the reduction proceeds initially by an ECE mechanism (electron transfer-chemical reaction-electron transfer) with n = 1 for both electron transfers. The chemical reaction involves a dissociation to produce a nickel species more easily reduced than the nickel(11) dithiocarbamate. However, for some derivatives, rate constants for the chemical step show a time dependence, at electrolysis times above 5 s, consistent with an ECCE mechanism of the type where the product of the first chemical reaction reacts further to produce a nickel species more difficult to reduce than nickel(11) dithiocarbamate. Exhaustive reduction of nickel(11) diethyldithiocarbamate at the mercury-pool electrode gave non-integral n-values (2 > n > 1) consistent with the ECCE mechanism, and demonstrated that the product of the second chemical reaction is reoxidized to nickel(11) diethyldithiocarbamate by oxygen. The nature of the complete electrode reaction suggests a metal-centred reduction.

AbstractThe dissolution characteristics and electrochemical reduction mechanism of oxides of refractory metals ZrO2, HfO2 and MoO3 in NaCl-KCl-NaF melts are studied. The results shows that there are no chemical reaction of ZrO2 and HfO2 in NaCl-KCl-NaF melts, the dissolution of MoO3 is chemically dissolved, and MoO3 reactwith melts to form Na2Mo2O7. The reduction process of zirconium in the NaCl-KCl-NaF-ZrO2 melts is a reversible process of one-step electron transfer controlled by diffusion. The electrochemical reduction process of ruthenium is a one-step reversible process and the product is insoluble; Electrochemical reduction of metallic molybdenum in melts is controlled by the diffusion and electron transfer process of active ion Mo2O27− . The electrochemical reduction process of the metal molybdenum in the melts is carried out in two steps.
