TL;DR: In this article, the cathodic reduction to alcohol of the conformationally rigid ketones 4-t-butylcyclohexanone, dihydroisophorone, trans-decalin-2-one, and trans-4a-methyldecalin 2-one has been investigated with particular reference to factors influencing the ratio of axial : equatorial alcohol.
Abstract: The cathodic reduction to alcohol of the conformationally rigid ketones 4-t-butylcyclohexanone, dihydroisophorone, trans-decalin-2-one, and trans-4a-methyldecalin-2-one has been investigated with particular reference to factors influencing the ratio of axial : equatorial alcohol. The parameters which have been varied include cathode material, solvent, proton donor, cathode potential, current density, and supporting electrolyte. The highest stereoselectivity in favour of the axial alcohols (kinetic control) is obtained using small or doubly charged electrolyte cations in ethanol. From 4-t-butylcyclohexanone the corresponding cis-alcohol is thereby obtained in 98% purity and 84% current efficiency. The control of stereochemistry is explained in terms of ion-pairing of key carbanionic intermediates.

Abstract: Simple and sensitive methods have been developed for the determination of nickel(II), based on the catalytic polarographic current in acidic thiocyanate solution in the presence and absence of cobalt(II). The basis of the methods and the effect of variables have been investigated and elucidated. In the absence of cobalt(II), thiocyanate solution containing large amounts of hydrogen ions serves a supporting electrolyte, while an acidic thiocyanate solution containing tetra-n-butylammonium salts is suitable for the determination of nickel(II) in the presence of cobalt(II). These methods are applicable to the determination 2×10−6 M nickel(II) in the presence and absence of 1×103 M cobalt(II).

TL;DR: In this article, an automatic voltammetric technique for studying the kinetics of reactions involving one or more electro-active reactants or products has been developed, which provides for automatic dilution of the reaction mixture with the supporting electrolyte in order to bring the concentrations within the voltammmetric range, automatic freezing of reaction when required, automatic stirring of reaction mixture solution and, especially, automatic recording of the current-time graph.
Abstract: The unique feature of the tubular electrode, that it permits continuous analysis of an electrolyte solution passing through it, has been made use of in developing an automatic voltammetric technique for studying the kinetics of reactions involving one or more electro-active reactants or products. The technique provides for automatic dilution of the reaction mixture with the supporting electrolyte in order to bring the concentrations within the voltammetric range, automatic freezing of the reaction when required, automatic stirring of the reaction mixture solution and, especially, automatic recording of the current-time graph, from which the kinetics of the reactions can easily be studied.The technique has been standardised by studying voltammetrically the reaction kinetics of the oxidation of potassium iodide with hydrogen peroxide in aqueous acidic solutions and comparing the data with those obtained titrimetrically. The results appear to show that the automatic technique has a high dependability. Encouraging results have been obtained in the study of the reaction kinetics of the oxidation of potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) with hydrogen peroxide and of sodium formate with potassium permanganate in acidic media.
