The expected product of polarographic reduction of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethene (FOX-7) in aqueous buffered solutions is ethan-1,2-diamine. But exhaustive electrolysis did not show this product. The main products are gases. Due to combination of electrochemistry and GC and with MS analysis were found following gaseous products: N-2, NO, N2O, H2O. However, no carbon containing gaseous product was found. A part of products remains probably in the water solution as inorganic ions. The degradation process accompanying the exhaustive electrolysis seems to be analogous to the reactions during explosion, but under very low concentration, cooled and slowed down by the solvent.
