The ion pairs [R4El]+[COT]− and [R4El]+2[COT]2− (El = N, P) are observed as intermediates in the electrochemical reduction of cyclooctatetraene in the presence of tetraorganoonium cations. The preparation of these ion pairs has been examined, and their reactions in THF have been followed by polarography and cyclic voltammetry and the reaction products isolated and identified.
观察到离子对[R 4 El] + [COT] -和[R 4 El] + 2 [COT] 2-(E1 = N,P)在四有机oon阳离子的存在下作为环
辛酸酯的电
化学还原的中间体。已经检查了这些离子对的制备,并通过极谱法和循环伏安法跟踪了它们在THF中的反应,并分离和鉴定了反应产物。
