Electrocatalytic oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA) at a carbon paste electrode, chemically modified 2,2'-[3,6-dioxa-1,8-octanediylbis(nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone, was thoroughly investigated. The results of cyclic voltammetry, double potential-step chronoamperometry, linear sweep voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) studies were used for the prediction of the mechanism of electrochemical oxidation of AA mediated with 2,2'-[3,6-dioxa-1,8-octanediylbis(nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone at the surface of the modified electrode. The diffusion coefficient (D = 2.45 x 10(-5) cm(2) s(-1)) and the kinetic parameters such as the electron transfer coefficient (alpha = 0.34) were also determined. The results of DPV using the 2,2'-[3,6-dioxa-1,8-octanediylbis(nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone-modified electrode were applied in a highly sensitive determination of AA in drug samples. A linear range of 3.0 x 10(-6) - 1.2 x 10(-4) M and the detection limit (3sigma) 3.8 x 10(-7) M were obtained for DPV determination of AA in buffered pH 7.00 solutions (0.1 M phosphate buffer). 相似文献
The photochemistry of benzanthrone (7H-benz[de]-anthracene-7-one) has been studied using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) in conjunction with the spin trapping technique and the direct detection of singlet molecular oxygen luminescence. Irradiation (lambda ex = 394 nm) of benzanthrone (BA) in aerated ethanol, dimethylsulfoxide or benzene resulted in the generation of superoxide (O2-.) which was trapped by 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide. The ethoxy radical was also detected in ethanol. Photolysis of BA in deaerated basic ethanol led to the formation of BA anion radical, BA-., which was detected directly by ESR. This radical anion decayed back to BA with a unimolecular rate constant of 1.5 x 10(-3) s-1. The 1O2 quantum yields (lambda ex greater than 345 nm) for BA in ethanol, 90% ethanol and basic ethanol (0.1N NaOH) were 0.89, 0.88 and 0.28 respectively relative to Rose Bengal. The lower yield of 1O2 in basic ethanol may be attributable to the reaction of oxygen with BA-. (which is generated in higher yield at alkaline pH) to give O2-.. These findings suggest that on exposure to light BA can generate active oxygen species which may be responsible for the photocontact dermatitis caused by BA in industrial workers exposed to this chemical. 相似文献
This study investigates the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose and some other carbohydrates on nickel/poly(o‐aminophenol) modified carbon paste electrode as an enzyme free electrode in alkaline solution. Poly(o‐aminophenol) was prepared by electropolymerization using a carbon paste electrode bulk modified with o‐aminophenol and continuous cyclic voltammetry in HClO4 solution. Then Ni(II) ions were incorporated to electrode by immersion of the polymeric modified electrode having amine group in 1 M Ni(II) ion solution. Cyclic voltammetric and chronoamperometric experiments were used for the electrochemical study of this modified electrode; a good redox behavior of Ni(OH)2/NiOOH couple at the surface of electrode can be observed, the capability of this modified electrode for catalytic oxidation of glucose and other carbohydrates was demonstrated. The amount of α and surface coverage (Γ*) of the redox species and catalytic chemical reaction rate constant (k) for each carbohydrate were calculated. Also, the electrocatalytic oxidation peak currents of all tested carbohydrates exhibit a good linear dependence on concentration and their quantification can be done easily. 相似文献

Determination of flavonoid markers quercetin, hesperetin, and chrysin, found in north Iranian citrus honey samples, was carried out by solid phase extraction (SPE) and isocratic liquid chromatographic separation using central composite design. Optimum conditions for SPE were achieved using 10 mL methanol/water (13:87, v/v, pH = 7) as the washing solvent and 4 mL methanol for elution. Good clean-up and high recovery >90% were observed for all analytes. The use of water/ACN/THF/AcOH (54:36:5:5, v/v) was found to serve as the optimum mobile phase composition and allowed for the separation of analytes from endogenous compounds present in honey. SPE parameters, such as maximum loading capacity and breakthrough volume, were also determined for each analyte. Limit of detection, linear range, recovery, repeatability of retention times, and peak heights were 3.11 × 10−8–4.44 × 10−8 g g−1, 0.50–50.0 μg mL−1 (R2 > 0.99), 90.7–96.9%, 3.0–3.6%, and 1.0–2.6%, respectively. Precision of the overall analytical procedure, estimated by five replicate measurements for quercetin, hesperetin and chrysin in citrus honey, as well as the relative standard deviations were 4.3%, 3.8%, and 5.5%, respectively.

Functionalized crosslinked polystyrene-co-divinylbenzene-co-chloromethylstyrene magnetic latex particles were prepared via emulsifier-free miniemulsion polymerization using 2, 2′ azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (V-50) as an initiator and in the presence of magnetite nanoparticles in the monomers. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) proved the presence of magnetite nanoparticles in polymer particles. Differential scanning calorimetery (DSC) analysis of the product showed an exothermic signal due to crosslinking of chains through electrophilic aromatic substitution of phenyl groups with chloromethyl groups in the presence of the dispersed Fe3O4 as Lewis acid. This was proven by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) via the loss of gaseous HCl. The results were also compared with those of magnetite-free miniemulsion polymerization using V-50. 相似文献
