    We report the electrochemical oxidation of ferricyanide, Fe (CN) and characterised the oxidation product by in-situ FTIR and XAS spectroelectrochemistry methods. Oxidation of Fe (CN) is proposed to proceed via a tentative Fe(IV) intermediate that undergoes reduction elimination to give cis-Fe (CN) (CH CN) as stable product in acetonitrile. Speciation of the oxidation product by DFT calculations is underpinned by good agreement to experimental data.
