Abstract: | The electrochemical characteristics of reduction of triphenylphosphite ozonide at a stationary platinum electrode were determined in acetonitrile at between –30 and –11°C. The feasibility of employing voltammetric methods to investigate the reactions of phosphite ozonides was demonstrated in a model study of the kinetics of the thermal decomposition of (C6H5O)3PO3 and its reaction with triphenylphosphite.Institute of Organic Chemistry, Urals Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, 450054 Ufa.
