Abstract: | A novel electroanalytical method for the determination of physcion is described for the first time. Physcion yields an adsorption catalytic voltammetric peak at –0.74 V (vs. SCE) in 0.4 mol L–1 NH4Cl–NH3·H2O buffer solution (pH 10.5) at a carbon paste electrode (CPE). The experimental results indicated that physcion is efficiently accumulated at a CPE by adsorption. In the subsequent potential scan, physcion was reduced to a homologous anthrahydroquinone compound. The compound was then immediately oxidized to physcion by the dissolved oxygen in the solution, and then physcion was again reduced at the CPE. As a result, a cyclic catalytic reaction was established. The second-order derivative peak current is proportional to the physcion concentration in the ranges of 2.0×10–10![thinsp](/content/p666722086632075/xxlarge8201.gif) ![sim](/content/p666722086632075/xxlarge8764.gif) 4.0×10–9 mol L–1 (accumulation 90 s) and 4.0×10–9![thinsp](/content/p666722086632075/xxlarge8201.gif) ![sim](/content/p666722086632075/xxlarge8764.gif) 2.0×10–8 mol L–1 (accumulation 60 s). The limit of detection is 8×10–11 mol L–1 (S/N=3) for a 120 s accumulation time. The method was applied to the direct determination of physcion in the medicinal plant polygonum multiflorum Thumb with satisfactory results. |
