چکیده

Boron-doped diamond (BDD) has attracted increasing attention as a reliable and robust electrode material. This surface has shown its potential in water treatment and ozone generation, and its increased resistance to dopamine (DA) or serotonin foulings [1–3] makes it a promising candidate for bio-analysis [4–7]. Even though the native BDD is hydrogen-terminated, its surface can be modified by adequate pretreatments. Cathodic or anodic pretreatments in acids have been found to regenerate a fouled BDD electrode [8] and to alter the response of BDD, the cathodic one leading to enhanced electrochemical responses [9]. Different preparation procedures for BDD have been found to show different electrochemical responses and to allow for the separation of DA and ascorbic acid oxidation signals [5]. In this communication, the effect of pretreatment on DA fouling has been investigated.

Boron-doped diamond electrodes in organic media: Electrochemical activation and selectivity effects

This study highlights the effects of the electrochemical surface pre-treatment of polished polycrystalline boron-doped diamond electrodes in ethanol on electron transfer to organic redox systems. A novel ‘‘activation’’ procedure based on cathodic polarisation in ethanol (0.01 M NBu4PF6) is proposed and shown to be highly effective in promoting electron transfer to the aqueous FeðCNÞ =4 6 redox ...

Visible-light sensitization of boron-doped nanocrystalline diamond through non-covalent surface modification.

A novel simple and versatile synthetic strategy is developed for the surface modification of boron-doped diamond. In a two-step procedure, polyethyleneimine is adsorbed on the hydrogenated diamond surface and subsequently modified with a model light-harvesting donor-π-bridge-acceptor molecule (coded P1). The sensitized diamond exhibits stable cathodic photocurrents under visible-light illuminat...

Cathodic reductive coupling of methyl cinnamate on boron-doped diamond electrodes and synthesis of new neolignan-type products

The electroreduction reaction of methyl cinnamate on a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode was investigated. The hydrodimer, dimethyl 3,4-diphenylhexanedioate (racemate/meso = 74:26), was obtained in 85% yield as the major product, along with small amounts of cyclic methyl 5-oxo-2,3-diphenylcyclopentane-1-carboxylate. Two new neolignan-type products were synthesized from the hydrodimer.

Simultaneous Detection of Monoamine and Purine Molecules using HPLC with a Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode

Most biochemical analyses typically examine molecules from the same neurochemical family, like dopamine and serotonin (monoamines), and GABA and glutamate (amino acids). In this present study, two different families, monoamines and purines, are being investigated using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode. There is considerable data demonstrat...

Surface Modification of Boron-Doped Diamond with Microcrystalline Copper Phthalocyanine: Oxygen Reduction Catalysis

Surface modification of boron-doped diamond (BDD) with copper phthalocyanine was achieved using a simple and convenient dropcast deposition, giving rise to a microcrystalline structure. Both unmodified and modified BDD electrodes of different surface terminations (namely hydrogen and oxygen) were compared via the electrochemical reduction of oxygen in aqueous solution. A significant lowering of...
