The electrochemical oxidation of seven derivatives of phenothiazin substituted in position 10 on the phenothiazin skeleton has been studied in acetonitrile, using a platinum disc electrode. The electron donor properties of the derivatives that depend on the substituent structure and the presence of nucleophiles in acetonitrile were followed. The diffusion coefficients for the formation of the radical cations were from 10-5 to 10-6 cm2 s-1 and depended on the concentration of the acid in acetonitrile medium. A determination of these substances has been proposed, using differential pulse voltammetry, with a detection limit of 1 . 10-7 mol l-1.

Conditions were found for the determination of 6-mercaptopurine (I) and 6-thioguanine (II) by TAST polarography, differential pulse polarography and fast-scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limits were 10-6, 8 . 10-8, and 6 . 10-8 mol l-1, respectively. A further lowering of the detection limit to 2 . 10-8 mol l-1 was attained by preliminary accumulation of the determined substances at the surface of a hanging mercury drop.

Electrochemical behavior of genotoxic nitro derivatives of quinoline, namely 5-nitroquinoline (5-NQ), 6-nitroquinoline (6-NQ) and 8-nitroquinoline (8-NQ), was investigated by DC tast polarography (DCTP) and differential pulse polarography (DPP), both at a classical dropping mercury electrode (DME), and by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and adsorptive stripping differential pulse voltammetry (AdSDPV), both at a miniaturized hanging mercury drop minielectrode (HMDmE), in buffered aqueous (for 5-NQ) or aqueous-methanolic (for 6-NQ and 8-NQ) solutions. Optimum conditions were found for the determination of 5-NQ, 6-NQ and 8-NQ by DCTP at DME (with limits of quantification, LQ ≈ 9 × 10–7, 3 × 10–7 and 2 × 10–6 mol l–1, respectively), by DPP at DME (LQ ≈ 1 × 10–8, 9 × 10–8 and 1 × 10–7 mol l–1, respectively), by DPV at HMDmE (LQ ≈ 2 × 10–8, 1 × 10–7 and 1 × 10–7 mol l–1, respectively), and by AdSDPV at HMDmE (LQ ≈ 1 × 10–8 mol l–1 for 8-NQ; an attempt at increasing the sensitivity using AdSDPV at HMDmE was not successful for 5-NQ and 6-NQ). Practical applicability of the developed methods was verified on the direct determination of the studied compounds in model samples of drinking and river water in submicromolar concentrations and on the determination in model samples of drinking and river water using preliminary separation and preconcentration by solid phase extraction (SPE) in nanomolar concentrations.

The polarographic reduction of the title azo dye was studied, a mechanism was suggested and optimal conditions were determined for analytical utilization of this process. A detection limit of 3 . 10-7 mol 1-1 was obtained using fast scan differential pulse voltammetry and 0.7 . 10-7 mol 1-1 using linear potential scan voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limit can be decreased by adsorptive accumulation of the determined substance on the surface of the hanging mercury drop electrode, to 1 . 10-8 mol 1-1 for fast scan differential pulse voltammetry and 0.6 . 10-8 mol 1-1 for linear scan voltammetry. The selectivity of the determination can be improved by preliminary separation by extraction or thin-layer chromatography.

Abstract The interaction of macrocyclic compounds like crown ethers and UO22+ has been studied by electrochemical methods. A modified carbon paste electrode incorporating benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) was used to evaluate the electron transfer reaction of UO22+ by cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Electrochemical impedance studies showed that charge transfer resistance was less for the B15C5-modified electrode than for the plain carbon paste electrode (PCPE). On the basis of these observations, a UO22+-sensitive crown ether chemically modified electrode (CME) for trace analysis was fabricated and investigated in aqueous solutions. It was found that a 5 B15C5CME for UO22+ showed a better voltammetric response than did the PCPE. UO22+ could be quantified at sub-μg/mL levels by differential pulse voltammetry with a detection limit of 0.03 μg/mL. By differential pulse adsorptive stripping voltammetry, UO22+ could be quantified in the working range of 0.002-0.2 μg/mL, with a detection limit of 1.1 μg/L. Simultaneous determination of UO22+, Pb2+, and Cd2+ was possible. The method was successfully applied to the determination of UO22+ in synthetic, as well as real, samples; the results were found to be comparable to those obtained by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy.

Optimum conditions were found for the determination of N-nitroso-N-methyl aniline and its derivatives substituted in the 4 position by -CH3, -OCH3, -Cl, -CN, -OH or -NO2 groups by fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the concentration range 1 10-5-2 10-7 mol l-1. It was demonstrated that these techniques are useful for the analysis of a mixture of the test substances either directly or after separation by thin-layer chromatography and that false positive results can be eliminated by UV irradiation of the test sample. An attempt to further increase the sensitivity by adsorptive accumulation of the test substances on the surface of the hanging mercury drop electrode was not successful as the test N-nitroso compounds are practically not adsorbed on this electrode.

Optimum conditions were found for the determination of 4-nitrobiphenyl by fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the concentration range 1 . 10-5 to 2 . 10-7 mol l-1. A further increase in sensitivity was attained by adsorptive accumulation of this substance on the surface of the working electrode, permitting determination in the concentration range (2 – 10) . 10-8 mol l-1 with one minute accumulation of the substance in unstirred solution or (2 – 10) . 10-9 mol l-1 with three-minute accumulation in stirred solution. Linear scan voltammetry can be used to determine 4-nitrobiphenyl in the concentration range (2 – 10) . 10-9 mol l-1 with five-minute accumulation in stirred solution, with the advantage of a smoother baseline and smaller interference from substances that yield only tensametric peaks.
