The electrochemical reduction of oxygen was studied in phenyltrimethyl‐ammonium hexafiuorophosphate‐nitrosodimethylamine solutions. The kinetic effects of different levels of water concentration were also investigated. The electrode studies indicated that the oxygen reduction in nonaqueous media is a complex mechanism. The postulated electrode process in the systems studied includes first, a series of surface processes on the electrode (adsorption, interaction between oxygen and platinum, reduction of the film formed) and second, two partially mass transport dependent steps with chemical kinetics complication (ECE mechanism).
