POLYNUCLEAR aromatic hydrocarbons in 75 per cent dioxane solution which contains 0.175 M tetrabutyl ammonium iodide are reducible in the dropping mercury electrode1. As shown by the corresponding polarograms, it is a two-electron addition step process, and it is similar to the reduction of these compounds by alkali metals or their amalgams and alcohol2, a fact which can be easily explained.
