48. + was only observed when using the spectroelectrochemical LIGA cell and can be suppressed by careful de-aeration of the solution with argon bubbling. Moreover, at the potential of the pre-peak no change in the UV-Vis spectra was found, which supports no additional chemical process being involved.
