The electrolytic oxidation of methyl, ethyl, and isopropyl alcohol, formaldehyde and formic acid in the potential region between 0.3 V (S.C.E) and oxygen evolution has been studied using cyclic voltammetry, chronopotentiometry, potential-decay and controlled potential techniques. The reaction is first order with respect to the organic compound and first order with respect to the area of the electrode. It is concluded that the electrode is first oxidized to PtOH and then to Pt(OH),. These compounds in turn chemically oxidize the organic compounds.
Rt?snmC-Emplois de la voltametrie cyclique, de la potentiochronometrie, des methodes de potentiel control6 et de chute de potentiel, pour Ctudier l'oxydation Blectrolytique des alcools methylique, ethylique, isopropylique, de la formaldehyde et de l'acide formique, dans l'intervalle de tensions compris entre 0,3 V (contre electrode standard li calomel) et l'evolution d'oxygene. La reaction est du premier ordre par rapport au compost organique et aussi du ler ordre par rapport ii la surface de l'blectrode. On en deduit que l'tlectrode est d'abord oxydQ en PtOH, puis Pt(OH),, qui ii leurs tours, oxydent chimiquement les composes organiques.
