Electron transfer (redox) processes are central to many chemical and physical processes. Electrochemical methods are one of the most powerful methods for the study of redox reactions and redox chemistry. Three research groups in the Chemistry Department at the University of Victoria (Hicks, Frank, Rosenberg) are engaged in "property directed synthesis research" in which synthetic targets are deisgned based on some aspect of electron transfer properties which they may exhibit. For two of these groups (Hicks, Frank) electrochemistry is a totally indispensible tool which is used on a daily basis, and the research interests of Rosenberg are rapidly growing. The growing need for electrochemical methods are currently compromised by the capricious performance of the current (fifteen year old) electrochemical instrument. Funds are requested for an urgent replacement/upgrade to enable the NSERC funded programs of these three groups.

电子转移（氧化还原）过程是许多化学和物理过程的核心。电化学方法是研究氧化还原反应和氧化还原化学最有力的方法之一。 维多利亚大学化学系的三个研究小组（Hicks、Frank、Rosenberg）从事“性质定向合成研究”，其中合成目标是根据它们可能表现出的电子转移性质的某些方面来设计的。对于其中两个群体（希克斯、弗兰克）来说，电化学是日常使用的完全不可或缺的工具，罗森伯格的研究兴趣正在迅速增长。当前（已有十五年历史）电化学仪器反复无常的性能损害了对电化学方法日益增长的需求。需要资金进行紧急更换/升级，以启用 NSERC 资助的这三个组的项目。
