Abstract
Ultrasonic effects on limiting current for the electroreduction of benzophenone were investigated on a glassy carbon cathode by means of steady state voltammetry in a DMF solution containing phenol as a proton donor. The sum and ratio of the first and second one-electron transfer wave heights (currents) were significantly affected by ultrasonic irradiation. From a comparative study with mechanical stirring, it was concluded that the ultrasonic effects were rationalized as due to promotion of mass transport of not only the benzophenone substrate but also the phenol proton donor by ultrasonically induced high-speed micro-jet streams.
