Abstract:

We present EQCM study for the electrochemical behavior of various 1-methyl-1'-alkylvilogen (C1CnV:n=1, 7-10, 12, 14,16, 18). In some viologens, we discussed the mechanism of CD-induced comproportionation reaction as well as electrodeposition pathway based on the EQCM and the spectroelectrochemical experimental results.
