Abstract

The kinetics and mechanism for the oxidation of o-tolidine have been studied at both platinum and optically transparent electrodes. Spectral data show that the intermediate is a dimeric species. Evaluation of fast kinetic rates for homogeneous reactions following charge transfer is demonstrated using transparent electrode.
