Abstract: The Polarographie reduction of nine 2-carboxybenzophenone derivatives substituted in position 4' was investigated. The results were correlated with Hammett G constants in order that the effect of substituent on Polarographie behaviour might be established. Thus in contrast to other substituted benzophenones a different character of this reduction was revealed. A scheme of the reduction mechanism was proposed.
