Conclusions
The limiting current of the first wave on the polarograms in the reduction of a mixture of 1,4- and 1,-dinitrocyclooctatetraenes corresponds to the transfer of two electrons. The reduction may be stopped at this step. The wave shape is determined by the reversible transfer of the first electron.
