Abstract: | A highly selective and sensitive electrochemical sensor for ascorbic acid (AA) assay has been prepared through Cu(I) catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC). The catalyst, Cu(I) species, is acquired from the reduction of Cu(II) by AA in situ. In the presence of Cu(I) catalyst, the azide modified Au electrode surface is shown to react quantitatively with terminal propargyl-functionalized ferrocene forming 1,2,3-triazoles. The electrochemical response of propargyl-functionalized ferrocene modified Au electrode surface can be monitored using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique. Under optimal conditions, it is found that the current intensity has a linear relationship with the logarithm of AA concentration in the range of 5.0 × 10(-12) to 1.0 × 10(-9) M. Furthermore, the proposed electrochemical sensor shows a good stability (RSD 4.2%), high selectivity and low detection limit for AA detection. In addition, it also demonstrates that the proposed sensor can be applied to detect AA in real urine samples with satisfactory results. |
