Experimental and Calculated Electrochemical Potentials of Common Organic Molecules for Applications to Single-Electron Redox Chemistry

Year: 2015

Type: article

Abstract: Herein, we report half-peak potentials for over 180 organic substrates obtained via cyclic voltammetry. These values are of great use in assessing the thermodynamics of an electron-transfer process. In addition, we disclose a simple computational method to determine redox potentials of organic substrates.
