This paper extends the study of photocurrent amplitude and phase measured during modulated illumination of a mercury electrode; the extension of work is to the two homologs of ethylene glycol (EG), 1, 3-propylene glycol (PG-1,3) and 1,2-propylene glycol (PG-1,2). A correlation may be recorded with the physicochemical properties of the corresponding solvents. EG and PG-1,2 are similar in their degrees of structuring and solvating powers, but they differ in these properties from PG-1,3. The reason is to be found in the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds between the OH groups in EG and PG-1,2.
