Popis: Quinones play important roles in biological electron transfer reactions in almost all organisms, with specific roles in many physiological processes and chemotherapy. Quinones participate in two-electron, two-proton reactions in aqueous solution at equilibrium near neutral pH, but protons often lag behind the electron transfers. The relevant reactions in proteins are often sequential one electron redox processes without involving protons. Here we report the aprotic electrochemistry of the two half-couples, Q/Q
