Cover Picture: Electrochemical Aldehyde Oxidation at Gold Electrodes: gem-Diol, non-Hydrated Aldehyde, and Diolate as Electroactive Species

In aqueous electrolytes, aldehydes exist in three forms: The non-hydrated aldehyde, the diol, and the diolate. This studiy show that all three species exhibit electroactivity. Hence, it is possible to formulate approaches for addressing the OH−-induced decomposition of aldehydes during the electrochemical oxidation of aldehydes.
