Abstract: | A carbon past electrode modified with Mn(H2O)(N3)(NO3)(pyterpy)],
( \textpyterpy = 4¢- ( 4 - \textpyridyl ) - 2,2¢:\text6¢,\text2¢¢- \textterpyridine ) \left( {{\text{pyterpy}} = 4\prime - \left( {4 - {\text{pyridyl}}} \right) - 2,2\prime:{\text{6}}\prime,{\text{2}}\prime\prime - {\text{terpyridine}}} \right) complex have been applied to the electrocatalytic oxidation of nitrite which reduced the overpotential by about 120 mV with
obviously increasing the current response. Relative standard deviations for nitrite determination was less than 2.0%, and
nitrite can be determined in the ranges of 5.00 × 10−6 to 1.55 × 10−2 mol L−1, with a detection limit of 8 × 10−7 mol L−1. The treatment of the voltammetric data showed that it is a pure diffusion-controlled reaction, which involves one electron
in the rate-determining step. The rate constant k′, transfer coefficient α for the catalytic reaction, and diffusion coefficient of nitrite in the solution, D, were found to be 1.4 × 10−2, 0.56× 10−6, and 7.99 × 10−6 cm2 s−1, respectively. The mechanism for the interaction of nitrite with the Mn(II) complex modified carbon past electrode is proposed.
This work provides a simple and easy approach to detection of nitrite ion. The modified electrode indicated reproducible behavior,
anti-fouling properties, and stability during electrochemical experiments, making it particularly suitable for the analytical
purposes. |
