Abstract

The behavior of glassy carbon, platinum, and gold electrodes was studied in a solution of and in aromatic hydrocarbons. No surface processes were observed on glassy carbon. Atomic bromine is adsorbed on Pt giving rise to an adsorption pseudocapacitance peak. On gold a complex pattern is observed due to the formation of different surface compounds such as ,, and probably . The initial potential for bromine evolution can be correlated with the chemical rate of bromination of the hydrocarbon, while the position of the adsorption and desorption peaks is essentially independent of it.
