Reduction of five derivatives of bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid containing one to four chlorine substituents on methylene bridges were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Electrochemical cleavage of C−Cl bonds and the reduction of H+ provided by dissociation of COOH groups are two competing processes characterized by different time constants. A concerted mechanism of C−Cl bonds cleavage is operative. The location of LUMO orbitals changes with increasing number of chlorine substituents from COOH sites to bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane. Carboxylic groups participate in the protonation of intermediates formed by the C−Cl bond rupture. The esterification of two derivatives eliminates the self-protonation. Esters are reduced only at very negative potentials near the end of an available potential window.
