Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of 1,8-anthraquinonedisulphonate potassium s alt forms anion radicals (EPR) and anthraquinone after oxidation of re duction products. Linear depend ence of E-1/2 Of quinone, moiety reduc tion on LUMO energy was used for estimation of reduction potential of probable reaction products. Reduction of quinone moiety is quasirevers ible and two electrons are exchanged. Desulphonation proceeds in conse cutive electrode steps of reduction.
