Abstract

Electrochemical reduction of FeIIILCl where L is a Schiff base has been investigated in various aprotic solvents. From a plot of the half wave potential E 1/2 for the reduction of these complexes vs. E 1/2 for the oxidation of ferrocene, the solvent–solute interactions were studied: the E 1/2 variation is found to be a function of Lewis-type acceptor–donor interactions. The diffusion coefficients D in the different solvents were also been determined by linear sweep voltammetry. The variation of D is discussed in terms of viscosity and dielectric constant.
