54. p,c peak, the term reversible is applied; similarly, quasireversibility refers to situations where chemical reversibility is dependent on scan rate (i.e., observed only at higher scan rates).

56. Owing to the limited data set available and the involvement of redox-active substituents, a similar correlation for the hexfluorocyclopentene- based switches was not attempted.
