✦ Synopsis

The advantage of using an opriwl multichannel Raman spectrometer to record vihr~tlonal spectrd oi ;idsorbJrrs simultaneously with elrctrochcmicsl studies is considerable. In this study. AelI)-?,3'-bipyridinc complex formarlon was monitored during the anodization of s~lvcr. At negative porcnrxds the reducrion of adsorbed brpyridine 1~~s found IO depend upon the bulk bipyridine concenlraIion. Surface enhanced Raman sc;lttrrmr enabled the suriacc redox reJcrions to be dir;tinguished from those of bipyrtdine in solution.
