Abstract: | The electrochemical behavior of various 1-methyl-1′-alkylviologens (C1CnV2+: n=1, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18) was studied using an electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). Three different types of the frequency change-potential (Δf–E) curves were observed depending on the length of alkyl substituent during the cyclic voltammetry (CV) of the first redox step: for n=1 and 7, Δf was less than 30 Hz (reversible); for n=9, 10, 12 and 14, Δf=200 Hz indicating electrodeposition of C1CnV![/><sup>+</sup>; for <em>n</em>=16 and 18, Δ<em>f</em>=5000 Hz with two anodic peaks implying reorientation of the electrodeposited C<sub>1</sub>C<sub><em>n</em></sub>V<img style=](https://sdfestaticassets-us-east-1.sciencedirectassets.com/shared-assets/16/entities/rad) | |
