“…The significantly larger peak-to-peak separation for the reduction of oxygen observed on the BDD electrode, as compared to the glassy carbon substrate, leads to the potential ability of studying the anthraquinone mediated reduction of oxygen within the non-aqueous media. Comparable experiments have been performed under aqueous conditions, where the semi-quinone species was observed to be highly reactive towards the reduction of oxygen [24]. However, due to the smaller potential range available for study in the present case (relative to that in aqueous media), careful selection of the electrocatalyst is required.…”
