Abstract
The rupture of N-N bonds in three specific N-nitrosoarylamines (N,N'-dimethyl-N,N-dinitroso-para-phenylenediamine, Cupferron, and N-nitrosodiphenylamine) upon electrochemical oxidation in acetonitrile solution is investigated. In two cases, viz., Cupferron and N-nitrosodiphenylamine, self-inhibition via partial blocking of the electrode due to adsorption is observed. In the case of the bis(nitroso)arylamine, waveshape analysis using the Marcus theory of steady-state voltammetry at microelectrodes suggests that the oxidation involves the formation of a dication before N-N bond cleavage or a mechanism of the ECEC type.
