We describe the electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) processes of the Ru(bpy)3(2+) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl)/ tripropylamine (TPrA) system at glassy carbon, platinum, and gold electrodes. The electrochemical behavior of TPrA on different electrode materials and its influence on the ECL process are demonstrated. At glassy carbon electrodes, the direct oxidation of TPrA began at approximately 0....

A nitrate-selective electrode based on a recently synthesized bis(2-hydroxyanil)acetylacetone lead(II) complex [(haacac)Pb] has been developed. Among different compositions studied, a membrane containing 30.7% poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), 61.3% dibutyl phthalate (DBP) as a plasticizer, 3% methyltrioctylammonium chloride (MTOAC) as a cationic additive and 5% ionophore (all w/w) exhibited the best...

A cobalt(II) derivative was used as a suitable ionophore for the preparation of a polymeric membrane nitrite-selective electrode. The electrode reveals a Nemstian behavior over a very wide NO2- ion concentration range (1.0 x 10(-6)-1.0 x 10(-1) M) and a very low detection limit (5.0 x 10(-7) M). The potentiometric response is independent of the pH of solution in the pH range 4.0-9.5. The electr...

Poly-o-anisidine Sn(IV) arsenophosphate is a newly synthesized nanocomposite material and has been characterized on the basis of its chemical composition, ion exchange capacity, TGA-DTA, FTIR, X-RAY, SEM, and TEM studies. On the basis of distribution studies, the exchanger was found to be highly selective for lead that is an environmental pollutant. For the detection of lead in water a heteroge...

The work described here comprises the determination of Fe(III) by ion selective potentiometry using a coated-wire ion-selective electrode (CWISE) based on iron–cyclam complex. Linear Nernstian response for this electrode was obtained over the total Fe(III) concentration range of 1× 10−2 to 1× 10−6 M in 0.05 M HNO3, H2SO4, HClO4, HCl, KNO3 and KCl media, with a slope of 60± 5 mV per decade chang...

In the present paper, electrochemical methods were used to investigate the behavior of ascorbic acid at a carbon paste electrode modified with 2,2'-((1E)-(1,2 phenylenebis(azanylylidene)) bis(methanylylidene))bis(benzene-1,4-diol) (PBD) and oxidized multiwall carbon nanotubes. The modified carbon paste electrode showed high electrocatalytic activity toward ascorbic acid; the current was enhance...

The following reagent grade chemicals were used without further purification: sodium bromide, thiourea, perchloric acid (60%), sodium bromide, sodium perchlorate (Fisher), bromine, silver nitrate, sodium bromate, and sodium hydroxide (Aldrich). Neither of the major reactants-...
