Electrochemical Reduction of Arylxenon Tetrafluoroborates

Reduction potentials of arylxenon(II) tetrafluoroborates have been measured by cyclic voltammetry method on platinum disc and ultramicro electrodes. The electrochemical properties of the arylxenon(II) tetrafluoroborates are quite different to those of corresponding arylperfluoralkyliodine(III) salts.
