Spectroelectrochemistry: the best of two worlds

TL;DR: Practical considerations and guidelines are provided in this tutorial review, and selected examples involving UV-VIS-NIR and IR absorption spectroscopy as well as electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) are presented to illustrate the potential and the applicability of this technique.

Organometallic Electrochemistry Based on Electrolytes Containing Weakly-Coordinating Fluoroarylborate Anions

TL;DR: A series of studies on transition metal sandwich and half-sandwich compounds yielded an integrated model of how to use solvent-electrolyte combinations to manipulate the E, and gave the first definitive in situ characterization of their radical cations.

Theory of Stationary Electrode Polarography. Single Scan and Cyclic Methods Applied to Reversible, Irreversible, and Kinetic Systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, the integral equations obtained from the boundary value problems were solved and extensive data were calculated which permit construction of stationary electrode polarograms from theory, making it possible to develop diagnostic criteria so that unknown systems can be characterized by studying the variation of peak current, half-peak potential, or ratio of anodic to cathodic peak currents as a function of rate of voltage scan.

Chemical and Electrochemical Electron-Transfer Theory

TL;DR: In this article, a review of electron transfer reactions is presented, focusing on the absence of bond rupture in the reaction step, which is a unique feature of purely electron-transfer reactions.

Equilibrium Acidities in Dimethyl Sulfoxide Solution

TL;DR: The first acidity scale to be established in a pure solvent other than water was the result of the pioneering work of Conant, Wheland, and McEwen in ether or ben~ene.

Ferrocene-mediated enzyme electrode for amperometric determination of glucose.

TL;DR: Type III adenosine deaminase would be the best choice for the construction of an immobilized enzyme electrode both from the point of view of apparent Km and Vmax values and from the less pronounced product inhibition effect on the type III enzyme compared to the Type V enzyme.
