The anodic oxidation of aromatic compounds was carried out at controlled potential in the non aqueous methanol-KOH system for the purpose of investigating this type of anodic reaction as a new possible synthetic method. The electroorganic nuclear oxidation was carried out at controlled potential electrolysis in a conventional three electrode cell assembly with platinum plate working as well as counter electrode and saturated calomel electrode as reference electrode. Controlled potential electrolysis was carried out in the solvent methanol and the supporting electrolyte in caustic potash. All the spectral and analytical data were found in good agreement with the synthesized compounds.

An environmentally benign method for the preparation of 2-amino-5-substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (1a-n) at platinum electrode through the electrooxidation of semicarbazone at room temperature is reported. The electrolysis were carried out at controlled potential in acetic acid solvent using lithium perchlorate as supporting electrolyte in an undivided cell assembly. Square shaped plates of platinum were used for working as well as counter electrode and a third electrode saturated calomel electrode was used as a reference electrode for the measurement of potential difference between two electrodes during the electrolysis.

A new type of photo-electro-chemical catalytic reactor was designed. The cathode of the reactor was made of highly pure graphite and the anode was made of titanium dioxide. A saturated calomel electrode (SCE) was so used as the reference electrode that the electric potential of the cathode was determined. Under the condition of ultraviolet radiation and anodic bias-voltage, reactive brilliant red X-3B was degraded in the reactor synchronously by the process of photoelectrocatalysis with titanium dioxide anode and electrogenerated hydrogen peroxide through reducing dissolved oxygen with graphite cathode. With the cooperation of the cathode and the anode, impressive decolorizing efficiency of reactive red X-3B has been achieved. The results showed that, when the concentration of reactive brilliant red X-3B was 25mg••L-1 and the inert supporting electrolyte concentration was 0.005 mol•L-1 (1000mg•L-1) sodium sulfate, initial solution ph=4, and cathodic potential -Ec = 0.60 V, under UV radiation as well as constantly pumping air into the reactor, decolorizing efficiency of 79% has been achieved.

In this paper, a sensitive differential pulse voltammetric method to determine the residues of acetophos in water samples at CNTPE were reported. The significance of CNTPE is to result in low detection limits, high sensitivities, reduction of over-potentials, high mechanical strength and high conductivity and resistance to surface fouling. The universal buffer with pH range 2.0–6.0 is used as supporting electrolyte. Cyclic voltammetry employed to evaluate electrode mechanism and number of electrons involved in reduction process were found out by using Millicoulometry and the product collected by applying Controlled potential electrolysis. Experimental conditions such as accumulation potential, accumulation time and scan rate were optimized. Calculations were made by standard addition method.

Abstract A fast, low-cost, convenient, and especially sensitive voltammetric screening approach for the study of the antioxidant properties of isoquercitrin and pedalitin from Pterogyne nitens is suggested in this work. These flavonoids were investigated for their redox properties using cyclic voltammetry in nonaqueous media using N,N-dimethylformamide and tetrabutylammonium tetrafluorborate as the supporting electrolyte, a glassy carbon working electrode, Ag|AgCl reference electrode, and Pt bare wire counter electrode. The comparative analysis of the activity of rutin has also been carried out. Moreover, combining HPLC with an electrochemical detector allowed qualitative and quantitative detection of micromolecules (e.g., isoquercitrin and pedalitin) that showed antioxidant activities. These results were then correlated to the inhibition of β-carotene bleaching determined by TLC autographic assay and to structural features of the flavonoids.

The polarographic behaviour of a series of arylazotheophyllines was studied in aqueous alcoholic buffer media and in DMF-0.1 M LiClO4 solution. The redox study gave evidence that the azo group is electroactive in aqueous as well as non-aqueous media. A mechanism interpreting the electrode process is proposed and confirmed through the identification of the controlled potential electrolysis products, the use of a model compound and the application of Hamett's σ-E relationship. The physico-chemical characteristics of these compounds, viz. the diffusion coefficient, dissociation constant, ionization potential and electron affinity, are also included.

The electrochemical behaviour of N′-(p-toluenesulphonyl)-3-methyl-4-(4′-substituted arylhydrazono) pyrazolin-5-ones has been investigated at dme and gc electrodes in buffer solutions of pH 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0 and 10.0 using dc polarography and cyclic voltammetry and coulometry. The compounds exhibit one well defined wave in the entire pH range of study. The process is irreversible and diffusion controlled. Controlled potential electrolysis indicates the involvement of four electrons in the reduction process. The effect of solvent, cations and anions, temperature and substitutents on the mechanism of reduction has been studied. Based on the results obtained the mechanism of reduction has been suggested.

The iodate-selective electrode based on the principle of precipitation reaction could be made by coating the platinum wire with silver iodate (AgIO3). In this research was carried out optimization the iodate-selective electrode using chitosan membrane as an AgIO3 support. The AgIO3 were added in the 2 mL 1% chitosan solution, is 0.5 to 2.5 % (w/v). The thickness of the membrane used is 6 to 12 µm. The electrode cell potential is measured against Ag/AgCl electrode as a reference electrode. The optimum electrode performance was at 2.0 % of AgIO3 with thickness a membrane of 10 µm. The iodate-selective electrode has a Nernstian factor is 52.96 mV/decade and a response time of 10 seconds. The concentration range was determined from 10-3 M to 10-1 M and the detection limit is 1.12 x 10-5 M.   Keywords:  Ion Selective Electrode, Iodate, Chitosan Membrane

A Co-doped ZnO layer was prepared by electrodeposition method on indium doped tin oxide (ITO) substrate using a cathodic reduction from nitrate medium with different doping percentages of cobalt. The bath temperature was controlled at 70 °C. The films were cathodically electrodeposited in a bath containing 5 mM Zn(NO3)2. 6H2O, while the source of Co is Co(NO3)2.6H2O where 0.1M KNO3 was used as supporting electrolyte. The nucleation and growth mechanism of Co-doped ZnO nuclei have been studied by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The cyclic voltammetry shows that the electrodeposition of ZnO and Co-doped ZnO at a negative potential around -1.0 V versus saturated calomel electrode (SCE) is a quasi-reversible reaction controlled by the diffusion process. Comparing current transients curves obtained by the chronoamperometric method with the theoretical curves of current density j versus t ½ allows us to say that the nucleation is 3D instantaneous, as shown in SEM analysis. The presence of Co does not modify the nucleation and growth mechanism. The XRD patterns show that the substitution of zinc by cobalt does not change the würtzite crystal structure, but the crystallite size decreases with the cobalt percentage. The transmittance spectra indicate that the Co-doped ZnO films are transparent in the visible range. The optical gap increases with the doping percentage of cobalt.
