Electrochemical Oxidation of Quercetin

The mechanism of electrochemical oxidation of quercetin on a glassy carbon electrode has been studied using cyclic, differential pulse and square‐wave voltammetry at different pH. It proceeds in a cascade mechanism, related with the two catechol hydroxyl groups and the other three hydroxyl groups which all present electroactivity, and the oxidation is pH dependent. Quercetin also adsorbs strongly on the electrode surface; and the final oxidation product is not electroactive and blocks the electrode surface. The oxidation of the catechol 3′,4′‐dihydroxyl electron‐donating groups, occurs first, at very low positive potentials, and is a two electron two proton reversible reaction. The hydroxyl group oxidized next was shown to undergo an irreversible oxidation reaction, and this hydroxyl group can form a intermolecular hydrogen bond with the neighboring oxygen. The other two hydroxyl groups also have an electron donating effect and their oxidation is reversible.     

On the Reactivity of Silver Electrodes in a Chlorine Radiofrequency Plasma — Plasma Oxidation vs. Thermal Oxidation

The plasma‐electrochemical growth of an ion‐conducting film by the oxidation of a metal in an electronegative plasma is investigated and compared with results from thermal oxidation. As model system we studied the oxidation kinetics of silver electrodes in a Cl₂ rf plasma. The electrochemical control of the reaction by external currents through the product layer using the plasma as a fluid electrode was achieved. Both potentiostatic and galvanostatic control of the reaction was applied. The morphology of the product layer and its temporal evolution was investigated using SEM. A formation of silver chloride surface patterns in the oxidation process takes place if a simple stability criterion is not fulfilled. Specific surface morphologies were found under different experimental conditions. The morphology of the product layer is influenced by the external electric current and the substrate temperature. The influence of the plasma phase on the thermodynamics and kinetics of the oxidation process is discussed. The role of excited plasma species, the electrical charging of the surface and radiation from the plasma are taken into account.     

Arsenite oxidation and arsenate determination by the molybdene blue method

Based on the similarity in properties of arsenate and phosphate, the colorimetric method using the molybdene blue complex was tested in order to determine low As(V) concentration in waters. The influence of complex formation time, daylight, temperature and competitive anions (silicate and sulphate) upon complex formation was determined. Optimal complex formation was reached in 1 h at 20±1 °C and was slightly favoured when developed in daylight. The formation rate declined with decreasing reaction temperature and no influence of any of the competitive anions tested (at concentrations usually found in natural waters of granitic areas) was noted. The detection limit of this method was 20 μg As(V) l⁻¹. This simple, fast and sensitive arsenic determination method is suitable for field analysis, especially for waters containing low levels of phosphate and organic matter. Through arsenate determination, this colorimetric method allowed the arsenite oxidation efficiency of five common industrial oxidants to be compared. H₂O₂ and MnO_2(s) were not considered as effective oxidants as a high excess was necessary to ensure As(III) oxidation. NaOCl and KMnO₄ were promising oxidants as they allowed complete arsenite oxidation with a small excess for NaOCl or even less than the electron stoichiometric ratio in the case of KMnO₄. FeCl₃ was the most effective oxidant among the reagents tested here.     

Kinetics of Oxidation of 4-Oxoacids by <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-Chlorosaccharin in Aqueous Acetic Acid Medium

The oxidation kinetics of substituted and unsubstituted 4-oxoacids (S) by N-chlorosaccharin (NCSA) have been studied in aqueous acetic acid media. The reaction follows first-order kinetics in each of the 4-oxoacids, NCSA and H⁺. The effect of changes in the electronic nature of the substrate reveals that positive charge develops in the transition state. Based on the kinetic results and product analysis, a suitable mechanism has been proposed for the reaction of NCSA with 4-oxoacids.

运用HREELS技术对甲醇在预吸附氯的Ag(111)表面上的吸附氧化行为进行了较细致的研究.结果证明Cl对甲醇氧化的影响缘于它在Ag(111)上的吸附所引起的表面结构的改变进而改变表面氧吸附物种,从而使得甲醇氧化的中间产物发生变化.实验结果说明甲醇在Ag(111)和低暴露量氯吸附的Ag(111)表面上的氧化行为是相似的,检测到了中间产物Ⅰ和Ⅲ;在高暴露量氯吸附的Ag(111)上甲醇氧化时则产生中间产物Ⅰ、Ⅳ和甲醛物种.对上述不同的甲醇氧化行为作了分析,并指出了以前人们在考察甲醇氧化机理时只考虑原子氧作用的片面性.     

Gas Phase Catalysis by Metal Nanoparticles in Nanoporous Alumina Membranes

Nanoporous alumina membranes, loaded with palladium and ruthenium nanoparticles of various size, were used for gas phase hydrogenation of 1, 3‐butadiene and for oxidation of carbon monoxide, respectively. Those membranes contain 10⁹ ‐ 10¹¹ pores per cm², all running perpendicular to the surface. Membrane discs of 20 mm in diameter and only 60 μm thick, incorporated in a reactor in which the reactants can be pumped in a closed circuit through the pores, turned out to very actively catalyze hydrogenation of butadiene (Pd) and oxidation of CO (Ru). The activity of the Pd catalysts depends characteristically on the particles size, the gas flow, and of the educts ratio. As could be expected, larger particles are less active than smaller ones, whereas increasing gas flows in case of hydrogenation accelerates the reactions. Excessive hydrogen reduces selectivity with respect to the various butenes, but favours formation of butane.
