Abstract

Cyclic voltammetry of ferrocene dicarboxylate in aqueous solutions at high pH, in the presence of oxygen, showed evidence of an EC′ mechanism where the oxidised form of ferrocene dicarboxylate reacts with HO^-₂, which had been produced at a lower potential. However, an analogous experiment with ferrocene carboxylate yielded a cyclic voltammogram with a post peak following the anodic peak for ferrocene carboxylate. The reason for the post peak is not clear but may be due to a delay in the reaction between the oxidised form of ferrocene carboxylate and HO^-₂.
