Abstract

By means of a rotating ring—disk electrode (RRDE) it was found that in LiBr + hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) solutions solvated electrons react very slowly with water, even at concentrations higher than 1 M. The reaction of benzene with solvated electrons in LiBr + HMPA solutions takes place only in the presence of a proton donor such as water. A second-order reaction rate constant was determined for this reaction and was found to be 0.26 × 10 3 M −1 s −1 at a disk current of − 1.25 mA.
