ELECTROCATALYTIC OXIDATION AND FLOW DETECTION OF CYSTEINE AT AN AQUOCOBALAMIN ADSORBED GLASSY-CARBON ELECTRODE

A chemically modified electrode (CME) constructed by adsorption of aquocobalamin (VB12a) onto a glassy carbon electrode surface was demonstrated to catalyze the electro-oxidation of cysteine, a sulfhydryl-containing compound. The sulfhydryl oxidation occured at 0.54-0.88 V vs. Ag/AgCl depending on pH value (3.0-10.0). The electrocatalytic behavior of cysteine is elucidated with respect to solution pH, operating potential and other variables as well as the CME preparation conditions. When used as the sensing electrode in flow injection amperometric detection, the CME permitted detection of the compound at 0.8 V. The detection limit was 1.7 pmol. The linear response range went up to 1.16 nmol. The stability of the CME was shown by RSD (4.2%) over 10 repeated injections.

Electrochemical catalytic reactions of tetraphenylporphinatocobalt were studied in DMF and EtCl2 solutions in the presence of 1,2-dibromoethane and 1, 2-dichloroethane utilizing cyclic voltammetry, thin-layer electrochemistry, in situ UV-visible spectroel

APPLICATION OF AN ULTRAMICROELECTRODE IN HOMOGENEOUS CATALYTIC REACTIONS .4. ELECTROCATALYTIC REDUCTION OF ORGANOHALIDES BY METALLOPORPHYRIN AT ULTRAMICROELECTRODE

The electrocatalytic reduction of 1,2-dibromoethane and tetrabromoethane with CoTPP in DMF solutions containing 0.1 M TBAP was investigated at a Pt ultramicroelectrode. The experimental results indicated that CoTPP obviously exhibited catalytic activity for 1,2-dibromoethane and tetrabromoethane. The rate constants of 1,2-dibromoethane and tetrabromoethane in this system were calculated to be 0.14 x 10(3) and 0.5 x 10(2) M-1 S-1, respectively. The reaction mechanism of 1,2-dibromoethane and tetrabromoethane reduction electrocatalysed by CoTPP in 0.1 M TBAP DMF solution is discussed.

STUDIES ON ELECTROGENERATION, INSITU ELECTROCHEMISTRY AND SPECTROELECTROCHEMISTRY OF ALKYL COBALT PORPHYRIN

Methyl-, ethyl-, propyl- and n-butyl cobalt porphyrins were electrochemically synthesized and studied byIn-situ cyclic voltammetry and UV-Visible spectro-el ectrochemistry. Rate constants for the alkylations were determined. It was found that the four alkyl saturated tetraphenylchlorin cobalt complexes were formed after electrochemical reduction of the alkyl cobalt porphyrins.
