Abstract

The radical anion P4· was detected and identified by the ESR method as a spin-adduct with nitrone during the electrochemical reduction of white phosphorus in the presence of a spin trap, viz., α-phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone, in a special electrolysis cell with a helical platinum working electrode in the potentiostatic mode. The character of the behavior of P4· and the spin trap during electrochemical reduction was monitored by cyclic voltammetry directly in the electrolysis cell, and the spin-adduct formed was detected by ESR.
