- undesired cathodic reduction. Indeed, trace amounts of 2-aminoproline derivative 6g (<4%) could be obtained by replacing SS as the cathode material with platinum that has a low overpotential for hydrogen evolution reaction [14]. To avoid the undesired cathodic reduction of the nitro group, the electrolysis

The potential window of the Cu(111) electrode in the pure supporting electrolyte (10 mM HCl) is limited by the oxidative copper dissolution reaction (CDR) at the anodic limit and the reductive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) at the cathodic limit. At
- several hours before use. Cyclic voltammograms of Cu(111) in pure 10 mM HCl (dashed grey curve) and in viologen molecules containing (10mM HCl + 0.1 mM DBV2+) solution (solid black curve); dE/dt = 10 mV/s; E = electrode potenial. CDR = copper dissolution reaction, HER = hydrogen evolution reaction
