✦ Synopsis
An experimental set-up was developed which allows the investigation of electrodes in pure sodiumpolysulphide melts. It could be shown that aluminium forms a passivating layer of aluminiumsulphlde ar an anodic potential of about 1 V zs a sodium reference electrode. Below this value, aluminium is active. With a copper containmgaluminium alloy the passivating potent&4 I$ increased to about 1.2 V. Pining corrosion was observed after operating the alummium electrode at current densities of several hundred mA cm-'. Reaction mechanisms which could exulain the acme, passlvc and trampassive rcgmns observed, are discussed.

The analysis of polarographic and coulometric results shows that the overall reduction mechanism of chlorobenzenesulphonamide derivatives occurs with the cleavage of the C-Cl bond followed by the reduction of the benzenesulphonamide involving the S-N bond breaking. However, theg, ,2 values fit the s
