Abstract
The electrochemical reduction of acridine (dimethylformamide (DMF) and Bu4NClO4) was investigated by differential cyclic voltammetry and controlled-potential electrolysis. The experimental data (dimerization rate constant and yield of the 9,9′ dimer) agreed with the theoretically calculated ones.
