A pair of new redox peaks of ascorbic acid at a platinum electrode was found and studied in detailed by spectroelectrochemistry and electrochemistry technologies. This is a quasi‐reversible redox reaction with a one‐electron transfer process. The intermediate of tertiary carbon free radical exists in this process. The appearance reaction rate constant and the diffusion coefficient were investigated. A possible reaction mechanism has been proposed.
