Abstract
Electrode kinetic studies on the reduction of azibenzil PhCOC(N2)Ph in MeCN solution indisate that the reaction follows an ECEhmechanism, the chemical step most probably involving unimolecular loss of N2from the diazoalkane anion radical with formation of the related carbene anion radical.Keywords
