原位红外光谱法研究对氯苯酚在Pt电极上的电氧化行为

采用原位红外光谱法研究了碱性条件下对氯苯酚(PCP)在Pt电极上电化学氧化的脱氯反应机理. 研究结果表明Pt电极对PCP有良好的电化学反应活性, 其氧化过程首先是对氯苯酚负离子氧化生成对氯苯氧自由基, 该自由基可与对氯苯酚负离子作用生成芳香醚低聚物; 随着电位升高, 对氯苯酚负离子经电化学氧化生成了苯二酚盐(还可能存在其氧化产物不饱和羧酸盐); 当电位继续升高, 苯二酚盐进一步氧化形成苯醌; 最后, 在Pt表面生成小分子羧酸盐, 同时生成了最终产物CO2. 但由于芳香醚低聚物等不溶性聚合物膜的形成并吸附在Pt电极表面, 可造成Pt电极毒化, 使得Pt电极在使用过程中逐渐失去活性.

Electroreduction of peroxodisulfate anion at platinum rotating disc electrode in the cyclic voltammetry mode

Electroreduction of peroxodisulfate anion at smooth polycrystalline and platinized (at different deposition potentials) platinum in perchloric acid and sulfuric acid solutions is studied by rotating disc electrode and cyclic voltammetry techniques. Dependences of the process rate on the electrode rotating velocity, the potential scan rate, the anodic limit of the scanning, the peroxodisulfate anion concentration in the solution and the platinizing conditions are found. The suggestion on the complications in the peroxodisulfate anion reduction caused by adsorbate formation is corroborated, at least, for certain potential region. The reaction structure sensitivity is evidenced, which makes it possible to use the reaction for characterization of the platinized Pt surface structure. The comparing of obtained results with literature data concerning smooth platinum and the single-crystal platinum basis faces allows concluding that the peroxodisulfate anion reduction maximal rate in sulfuric-acid solutions occurs at the potentials close to those observed for the (110) face. When the platinized Pt surface roughness factor exceeds ~30, the peroxodisulfate anion reduction reaction proceeds under the inner-diffusion limitation control. The platinized-Pt rotating disc electrode can serve as model tool in the studying of properties of disperse material microdeposits.     

Cyclic Voltammetry Examination for Effect of Counter Anion on Adsorptive Voltammetry of 11‐Ferrocenytrimethylundecylammonium at Carbon Paste Electrode

The electrode oxidation of 11‐ferrocenyltrimethylundecylammonium (FeTMUA) at carbon paste electrode (CPE) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry in order to reveal the adsorption nature of FeTMUA ion‐paired with anion. The voltammograms of FeTMUA were classified by the counter anion; hydrophilic and hydrophobic ions. The electric charge reflecting the adsorption isotherm increased gently with the FeTMUA concentration until a critical point (CP), which was independent of the sort of hydrophilic anion and comparable with the amount of the maximum surface coverage of FeTMUA at the air‐water interface. The voltammogram for hydrophobic anion had two oxidation waves. The electric charge for the first wave monotonously increased with the FeTMUA concentration without indicating CP. The second wave was not observed on the voltammogram at the glassy carbon electrode, thus the second wave was made from the pasting liquid. These results suggested that CPE adsorbed FeTMUA with hydrophilic anion behaved like serving a liquid surface, however, CPE adsorbed FeTMUA with hydrophobic anion was disordered and represented the heterogeneity.     

Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance study of perchlorate and perrhenate anion adsorption on polycrystalline gold electrode

The electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) was used to study adsorption/desorption of perchlorate and perrhenate ions on a bare polycrystalline gold electrode. An electrode mass change in perrhenate solution was about double that of perchlorate. The equivalent mass of adsorbed anions (about 260 and 120 g F⁻¹ respectively) suggests adsorption of perchlorate and perrhenate anions on a polycrystalline gold electrode in the double-layer region. Water molecules are partially expelled from the gold surface during the initial stages of anion adsorption. The water loss is about three times larger for perrhenate compared to perchlorate due to the bigger ionic radius (volume) of the perrhenate anion.     

Anion sensitive voltammetry of fullerene C60 dissolved in 1,2-dichlorobenzene deposit in contact with aqueous electrolyte

Electroreduction of C₆₀ dissolved in hydrophobic solvent deposited on the electrode surface was studied. A microliter amount of C₆₀ and tetrahexylammonium perchlorate solution in 1,2-dichlorobenzene was deposited on basal plane pyrolytic graphite electrode and this electrode was immersed into an aqueous solution. The voltammetry shows three consecutive reduction–oxidation steps. The redox potential of first electroreduction step is sensitive on anion but not on cation present in the aqueous phase. This parameter also depends on electrolyte concentration in the aqueous and organic phase. It is proposed that electroreduction of C₆₀ is preceded by anion exchange and followed by anion expulsion to the aqueous phase. Similar anion effect on the redox potential is also observed for unsupported deposit indicating importance of initial partitioning of electrolyte into the organic phase.     

Ion Transport Across Liquid|Liquid Interfacial Boundaries Monitored at Generator‐Collector Electrodes

Anion transfer processes at a liquid|liquid interface were studied with an interdigitated gold band array electrode. The organic phase, 4‐(3‐phenylpropyl)‐pyridine containing Co(II)phthalocyanine, was immobilised as random droplets at the electrode surface and then immersed into aqueous electrolyte. Oxidation of Co(II)phthalocyanine at the generator electrode was shown to be associated with anion transfer from the aqueous into the organic phase. The corresponding back reduction at the collector electrode with anion expulsion was delayed by the anion/cation diffusion time across the interelectrode gap. A working curve based on a finite difference numerical simulation model was employed to estimate the apparent diffusion coefficients for anions in the organic phase (PF₆^?4^?3^?). Potential applications in ion analysis are discussed.     

Redox-active electrolyte supercapacitors using electroactive ionic liquids

Here we present redox ionic liquid supercapacitors (RILSCs) which use electrolytes made from ionic liquids modified with an electroactive function to increase the energy density of activated carbon electrodes via faradaic reactions. More specifically, two different ionic liquids were made by modifying either the imidazolium cation or the bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anion with ferrocene in order to determine the importance of the electroactive ion's polarity. The functionalization of an ionic liquid with ferrocene led to high concentrations of redox moieties in the electrolyte (2.4 M) and a large maximum operating voltage (2.5 V). An energy density of up to 13.2 Wh per kg (both electrodes) was obtained which represents an 83% increase vs. the unmodified ionic liquid. When the ionic liquid's anion is modified with ferrocene, the self-discharge at the positive electrode is fully suppressed due to the deposition of a film on the electrode. The results presented herein demonstrate that electroactive ionic liquids constitute a promising alternative to conventional solute in solvent electrolytes found in energy storage devices, and are particularly well-suited for redox-active electrolyte supercapacitors.     

5,5-Diethylbarbiturate tubular electrode for use in flow-injection detection systems

The construction, assessment and pharmaceutical appalications of a tubular potentiometric detector sensitive to the 5,5-diethylbarbiturate anion based on quaternary ammonium salt (tetraoctylammonium5,5-diethylbarbiturate) dissolved in o-nitrophenyl octyl ether immobilized in PVC are described. The intrinsic characteristics of the tubular electrode were determined in a low-dispersion manifold and compared with those of a conventional-shaped electrode with no internal reference solution and incorporating the same sensor. The behaviour of a double-channel flow-injection manifold with the same potentiometric detector was evaluated to assess its applicability to the determination of 5,5-diethylbarbiturate in pharmaceutical preparations. Data obtained in the determination of the anion in the latter matrices are presented and compared with those obtained by the conventional British Pharmacopoeia method.     

Diamond electrode facilitated electrosynthesis of water and wastewater treatment oxidants

While diamond electrodes have been commonly used to generate ^?OH to treat a variety of persistent water and wastewater micropollutants, mass transfer limitations and the non-selective, short-lived nature of the ^?OH restrict the degradation to the solution at, or near, the electrode surface. However, diamond electrodes can generate oxidizing species that facilitate micropollutant degradation in the bulk water solution. These include persulfate, sulfate radicals, peroxodiphosphate, ferrate, permanganate, reactive chlorine species, hydrogen peroxide, and ozone, which have been reported during electrochemical treatment of water with diamond electrodes. Although still restricted to specialized applications, recent studies, summarized in this review, have proven the electrogeneration of these additional oxidant species to be effective. They have shown the adaptability and potential of diamond electrode-based water treatment to mitigate the presence of micropollutants in water.     

Model description of specific adsorption of two anions on electrodes

Simultaneous specific adsorption of two anions on the electrode surface is considered. Calculations involve the use of the Frumkin adsorption isotherm for each anion and a model that describes the electric double layer structure based on one or two Helmholtz planes. Dependences of the ion adsorption on both the electrode potential and the solution composition are calculated for different electrode charges, ion sizes, and capacitance characteristics of the electric double layer.

Adsorption of dicarboxylic acids on lithiated nickel oxide electrode

Adsorption of dicarboxylic acids on NiO electrodes was studied by means of the galvanostatic transient method, mainly for oxalic acid. The oxalate or hydrogen oxalate anion or both were concluded to adsorb on the electrode. The adsorption was maximal at a potential less positive than the flat-band potential of the electrode, owing to preferential adsorption of hydroxyl anion in the region above the maximum adsorption potential. The quantity of adsorption was dependent on carrier concentration of the electrode, and high for the electrode of high carrier concentration. This phenomenon is connected to the charged condition of the electrode that when the maximum adsorption takes place, positively charged sites remain on the surface of the electrode which is charged negatively as a whole and the amount of the sites is much more different between the electrodes of different N than their bulk carrier concentrations. Adsorptions of malonic and succinic acid were distinctly low compared with that of oxalic acid. The adsorbability was in the order; oxalic acid>malonic acid>succinic acid. This order was in accord with the stability constants of nickel dicarboxylic acid chelates.

The electrochemical behavior of methanesulfonic acid on platinum single crystal electrode surfaces is investigated by cyclic voltammetry and infrared spectroscopy measurements. The results are compared with the voltammetric profiles of perchloric and trifluoromethanesulfonic acids. The differences are interpreted in terms of the effect of the anion on the structure of water. No adsorbed species are detected by infrared spectroscopy.     

Study of time changes of anion exchanger electrode characteristics

The elution of the anion exchanger from the membranes of ion-selective electrodes and its influence on the electrode characteristics are studied. The decrease of the exchanger concentration in the PVC membrane depends on the exchanger lipophilicity and the concentration of the counter ion in the external solution. On this basis it is possible to estimate the electrode life time and limit of detection.Dedicated to Professor W. Simon on the occasion of his 60th birthday
