Abstract:

Simulation of cyclic voltammograms of nitrofluorenes (1), namely 9,9-bis(n-butylthio)nitrofluorenes in methylene chloride at a mercury working electrode was done. Both cathodic and anodic peaks were analyzed using ESP 2.4 and CVSIM. The effect of the number of nitrogroup substituens was examined in case of mono-, di- and trinitro-9,9-bis(n-butylthio) fluorenes. For voltammaograms of nitrofluorenes simulation was consistent with E (Electrochemical) type mechanism for mononitro- and dinitro-derivatives. However, trinitro-derivative showed slightly different behaviour and exhibited EE (Electrochemical-Electrochemical) type mechanism. Evaluation of thermodynamic and kinetic parameters for nitro-9,9-bis(n-butylthio)fluorenes in methylene chloride based on simple E and EE mechanisms is presented.
