✦ Synopsis
A polarographic and kinetic study of the reduction of diacetyl has been carried out in the 0 < pH < 10 range in buffered aqueous solutions. The effect of pH, the diacetyl concentration, the height of the mercury column, the drop time, and temperature on the limiting current is studied. A discussion of the obtained results and the data reported in the literature is made. The Tafel slopesand reaction orders with respect to diacety1 and H+ ion are obtained for the first reduction waveat potentials corresponding to the foot of the polarographic wave, and a reaction mechanism according to the experimental data is proposed in this zone of potentials.
