Abstract:The application of hydroquinone for the coulometric generation of hydrogen
ions in propylene carbonate (PC) and ?-butyrolactone (GBL) is described. The
current-potential curves recorded for this depolarizer, titrated bases,
indicator and the solvents used showed that the investigated depolarizer is
oxidized at lower potentials than the oxidation potentials of other
components in the solution. The hydrogen ions generated by the oxidation of
hydroquinone were used for the titration of organic b… 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.
