Abstract
The voltammetry, ESR- and UV-spectroscopy methods and quantum chemical calculations (CNDO/2) are used to establish the nature of active centers and an anion mechanism of the polystyrene electrosynthesis during the reduction of 9-fluorenone (R) in a monomer–aprotic solvent–NaClO4 system. The higher the solvent's acceptor number, the lower the R·– generation potentials. The conversion of styrene increases with its donor number.
