Abstract:is a free-radical anion of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) family. In the present study, the relative reactivities of 14 structurally varied aliphatic alcohols toward electrochemically generated O 2 * À were investigated in solutions of N,Ndimethylformamide by using cyclic voltammetry (CV). Upon the stepwise addition of each substrate, the chemical reversibility of the one-electron voltammetric reduction of the dioxygen (O 2 ) to O 2 * À was found to decrease, which enabled the extent of radical inhibition t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
