Reduction potentials in water at pH 7 (in mV, vs. NHE), kET/kHAT ratio, and kET (in M−1 s−1) for phenols 1, 2, 3, and 5.
phenol | k ET/kHAT | k ET | E 0 |
---|---|---|---|
1 | 1.5 × 106 | 8.8 × 103 | 970a |
2 | 1.4 × 105 | 8.9 × 102b | 1060a |
3 | 5.4 × 104 | 3.1 × 106 | 617c |
5 | 1.6 × 104 | 3.7 × 105 | 290d |
From ref. 14 In the same work redox potentials (at pH > 12) for 1˙/1− and 2˙/2− are 790 mV, and 1000 mV, respectively.14
This is the upper value, the lower kET can be 35 M−1 s−1, see explanation in the text.
Measured in water with Britten–Robinson buffer vs. Hg|Hg2SO4|K2SO4 electrode and recalculated into NHE.17
