Abstract

Admittance measurements were applied to investigation of the charge-transfer rate and mechanism of anodic complex formation between mercury and macrobicyclic ligand (222) as well as to the cathodic reduction of Hg 2+-(222) complex formed in the bulk. From measurements in PC and DMF using adsorbable and non-adsorbable base electrolyte anions it was shown that the reactant adsorption effects are observable only if adsorption of ClO 4 − and (222) takes place at the same time. Corresponding charge-transfer rates were evaluated and potential dependence of the adsorption capacity for two ligand concentrations was given. At the half-wave potential apparent rate constants k 1/2 listed below were found (data from Fig. 9).
