The effect of 1,5‐diaminonaphthalene (DAN) in water–methanol (MeOH) mixture and N,N′‐diphenylthiourea (DFTU) in water–ethanol (EtOH) mixture on the electroreduction of Zn II on the mercury electrode is discussed. Both substances have no effect on the Zn II electroreduction process in the aqueous solution but they accelerate the process in water–alcohol mixtures. A probable mechanism of this process has been presented.
