Doi: 10.1016/j.jelechem.2009.11.0291572-66571873-2569https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jelechem.2009.11.029https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12395/25142Molecular oxygen (O-2) reduction by decamethylferrocene (DMFc) was investigated at a polarized water/1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) interface. Electrochemical results point to a mechanism similar to the EC type reaction at the conventional electrode/solution interface, in which an assisted proton transfer (APT) by DMFc across the water/DCE interface via the formation of DMFcH(+) corresponds to the electrochemical step and O-2 reduction to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) represents the chemical step. The proton transfer step can also be driven using lipophilic bases such as 4-dodecylaniline. Finally, voltammetric data shows that lipophilic DMFc can also be extracted to the aqueous acidic phase to react homogeneously with oxygen.en10.1016/j.jelechem.2009.11.029info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOxygen reductionProton reductionDecamethylferroceneLiquid/liquid interfaceVoltammetryArticle63901.02.2020102108Q1WOS:000275137400015Q2
