Standard electrode potentials of M+|M couples in non-aqueous solvents (molecular liquids)

Electrode potentials referred to the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) as reference were derived from polarographic (cyclovoltametric) and potentiometric measurements providing new data for up to forty non-aqueous solvents. Conversion to the SHE was based on the bis(biphenyl)chromium assumption. Comparison with data obtained from the assumption of a negligible liquid junction potential and from solubility studies in connection with the tetraphenylarsonium tetraphenylborate assumption is made.
