Abstract

Abstract The relative standard potentials of alkali metals, silver, and thallium metal/ion couples in N,N′-dimethylforrnamide(DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO), and propylene carbonate (PC) were measured against an aqueous saturated calomel electrode(SGE). These standard potentials of lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium, thallium, and silver are −3.237, −2.898, −3.116, −3.079, −3.079, −0.643, and +0.372 V vs. SGE respectively in DMSO, and −3.163, −2.830, −3.067, −3.040, −3.048, −0.559, and +0.538 V vs. SGE respectively in DMF, and −2.9064, −2.691, −3.002, −2.980, −2.986, −0.402, and +0.813 V vs. SGE respectively in PC. The thallium electrode was found to be stable enough to be used as a reference electrode in these solvents. For the purpose of examining the Debye-Hückel equation for estimating the activity coefficient, the formal potentials of the thallium electrode were measured at various ionic strengths. The Debye-Hückel equation was confirmed to be applicable in these solvents, provided a proper value was chosen for the ionic radius parameter, a, for each solvent–3.6 for DMSO, 5.0 for DMF and 0.0 for PC.
