Review of Electrochemistry

Electrochemistry is the study of mutual transformation of chemical and elec-frical energy. Specifically, it deals with chemical reactions driven by an electric current and with the electricity produced by chemical reactions. Examples of electrochemistry are electroplating, iron oxidation (rusting), solar-energy conversion, electrochemical conversions (fuel cells, bafferies), phofosynfhe-sis, and respiration. In this chapter, the principles of electrochemisfry are reviewed. First, let us briefly look info fhe history of electrochemisfry. 

Demonstration of a fuel cell by Grove in 1839 the electricity produced by five cells was used to decompose water.

For a review of electrochemistry as applied to porphyrin and metalloporphyrin systems, see (B-75MI30707). 

Reduction potentials of a large number of peripherally substituted metal-free porphyrins have been measured, and substituent partial potentials have been derived the reduction potentials can also be correlated with porphyrin basicity (p/ ) and reactivity (80MI30701).
