Determination of standard Gibbs energies of transfer of organic anions across the wateritrobenzene interface

摘要

The oxidation of decamethylferrocene dissolved in a nitrobenzene droplet and attached to a graphite electrode that is immersed in an aqueous electrolyte solution provides the basis to determine the standard Gibbs energies of transfer of simple organic anions, such as those of aliphatic and aromatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids, and phenols. The data are rationalized on the basis of the constitution of the compounds. [References: 28]
