Abstract
The electrochemical reduction of nitro compounds played an important role in the development of organic electrochemistry in the early period around 1900 [1]. For example, it was studies of the stepwise reduction of nitrobenzene that originally led Haber [2] to realize the importance of the potential of the working electrode in electrochemistry and to establish the redox relationship between nitrobenzene, nitrosobenzene, phenylhydroxylamine, aniline, p-hydroxyaniline, azoxybenzene, azobenzene, hydrazobenzene, and benzidine [2,3]. The essential parts are reproduced in Scheme 30.1.
