ABSTRACT

The term magnetoelectrochemistry refers to the study of electrochemical phenomena under the application of magnetic elds. The inuence of magnetic elds on electrochemical reactions is well known and involves from metal electrodeposition to electropolymerization (Fahidy, 1999). Conversely, magnetic elds can be induced by electrochemical reactions (Juzeliünas, 2007). The effect of magnetic elds on electrochemical processes in solution phase is threefold: (1) may cause energy-level splitting in radicals (Zeeman effect); (2) may bring about diamagnetic orientation of aromatic molecules; (3) may cause convection in the electrolytic solution (magnetohydrodynamic effect.
