The electrochemical reduction of methylfluorobenzoates at glassy carbon electrodes is analyzed using the convolution potential sweep voltammetry (CPSV). The stabilization of the radical anion due to the electron-withdrawing group is shown to lead to intra-molecular stepwise dissociative electron tra
