The parameters of the linear regression 𝐸 𝑝 [ 𝑚 𝑉 ] = 𝑎 p H + 𝑏 for the dependence of peak potential 𝐸 𝑝 of the first main nitro group reduction on the pH of the aqueous phase of the supporting electrolyte. Supporting electrolyte: BR buffer-methanol in ratios 1 : 1, 3 : 7, and 1 : 9 for 2-NF, 1-NP, and 3-NFt, respectively.
