Electrochemical reduction of zinc complexes from glycinate solutions

Kinetics of electrochemical reduction of zinc(II) complexes is studied in a wide range of solution pH using the polarization measurements and chronopotentiometry. Adsorption of glycinate ions on zinc electrode and complexing of zinc(II) with glycine are studied using the 13C NMR method. Based on the experimental data, the electrochemical behavior of zinc(II)–glycine–water system is considered.
