Heteroleptic bis(dipyrrinato)copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes are synthesized. Their structures are determined by X-ray diffraction analysis, and their properties are investigated by using cyclic voltammetry, chronocoulometry, and UV/vis absorption spectroscopy.

widely used for the initial characterization of electrochemically active systems. In addition to indicating the number of different oxidation states, and their relative energies, CV can also be used for mechanistic studies of systems in which the electron transfer reactions are coupled to chemical reactions, due to the characteristic appearance of cyclic voltammograms associated with different ...

In this study, the protocol for arsenic (III) detection from an aqueous solution using stripping voltammetry on a silver-modified synthetic zeolite-carbonnanotubes-epoxy composite electrode (CNT-AgSZ) was elaborated. Three types of electrochemical techniques were used in order to optimize the operating conditions, i.e., cyclic voltammetry, differential-pulsed voltammetry and squarewave voltamme...

The polyaniline (PANI) powder with globular sponge-like morphology was prepared by chemical solution polymerization, and its morphology and chemical structure were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), respectively. The single electrode of electrochemical capacitor was made using the prepared PANI powder as active material and ca...

In this work, a simple and sensitive electrochemical method was developed to determine Sudan I by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry using a glassy carbon electrode modified with a chitosan/carbon nanotube composite. In cyclic voltammetry, Sudan I exhibited a well-defined oxidation peak located at 0.72 V at the multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/chitosan-modified GCE. The d...

Photoredox chemical reactions induced by visible light have undergone a renaissance in recent years. Polypyridyl dyes such as Ir(ppy)3 and Ru(bpy)3 are key catalysts in this event, and blue- or white-light irradiation is required for the chemical transformations. However, it remains a challenge to achieve reactions under the lower energy of red light. We disclose, herein, that trifluoroethoxy-c...
