Abstract: | Extensive catalytic waves of Co(II) are observed in N3?/HN3 buffers, in which hydrogen discharge is not the dominant process, but rather HN3 reduction to NH4+ and N2. Cobalt(I) was shown to be the active intermediate of the catalytic process. The rate-determing step was found to be the Co(I) reduction to the metal. Heterogeneous rate constants were calculated and relationships with average ligand number were derived. |
