The polarographic characteristics (potentials, number of electrons, reversibility) of the electrochemical reduction of 7,7-dimethyl-3-nitro-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydroquinol-5-ones and 1,6,6-trimethyl-4-nitro-2,4a,5,6,7,8-hexahydroisoquinol-8-ones in DMF are determined. Secondary anion-radicals have been proved to arise during the electrochemical reduction and the hyperfine structure and coupling constants of their EPR spectra are established.
