Cyclic voltammetry studies on substituted arenesulfonhydrazides

Abstract

Additional Z and Boc groups on the vicinal nitrogen of sulfonyl hydrazines have no significant effect on the cathodic potential of the sulfonyl functions as measured by cyclic voltammetry, whereas a Boc group on the geminal nitrogen invariably gives rise to shifts of about 0.2 V to less negative potential similar to those previously observed for derivatives of amines.
