Abstract
The mechanism involved in electroreduction of citrate complexes of cop per(II) is analyzed in the pH interval from 3.5 to 11 using the techni que of isopotential solutions and polarization resistances determined under forced convection. In acidic media, the CuLH(-) species is the p revailing electroactive complex; in alkaline media, it is the CuL(2-) complex that predominantly discharges.
