A polarogram for benzyl chloride in a supporting electrolyte of lithium chloride has a dip in the limiting current due to electrostatic repulsion from the interface of the monovalent anion produced by transfer of the first electron. The dip is decreased by the presence of electronegative substituents on the ring and is eliminated by a moderate concentration of surface‐active tetra‐methylammonium ions in the solution.
