Abstract

Electrochemical oxidation of nitrite ions has been studied in nominally anhydrous acetonitrile at platinum, gold, and glassy carbon electrodes. Tafel slopes, a‐c polarography, and potential values indicate the electron transfer is reversible. It is believed that the radical‐molecule leaves the carbon and platinum surfaces by a unimolecular step, most probably desorption, and that the leaves the gold surface by dimerization as well as by unimolecular desorption.
