Abstract
Electrohydrodimerization(EHD) of fumarodinitrile on liquid gallium electrode can take place not only in hydrotropic solution of tetraethylammonium p_toluenesulphonate(TEA_PTS), but also in aqueous solution containing low concentration of strong surfactants, such as TritonX_100. In solution without organic surfactant, FDN yields a single two_electron reduction wave corresponding to the formation of a saturated monomer called as butanedinitrile. If some TEA_PTS or TritonX_100 is added into the solution, the original two_electron wave is splitted into two continuous single_electron reduction wave and corresponding EHD of fumarodinitrile is obtained.
