description

The polarographic reduction of low molecular and high molecular N-chlorocarboxamides at the dropping mercury electrode proceeds in two one-electron-transfer steps, which are highly irreversible. In the case of the low molecular models 1 and 2 the reaction is diffusion-controlled, whereas in the case of the poly(N-chloroamide) 3 the reaction is adsorption-controlled. Reduction of several poly(N-chloroamide)s shows always two reduction waves with a distance of 0,5 V. There is, however, no relation between the polyamide-type and the position of the half-wave potentials. The polarographic reduction can be used as an analytical method for quantitative determination of N-chlorocarboxamide groups in polymers.
