The present work aims to report the investigation of the electrochemical behavior of 3- arylazomethine-1,2,4-triazole derivatives in universal aqueous buffer series at mercury electrode. The electrode behavior of the studied compounds was performed via voltammetric studies, chronoamperometry, convoluted transforms, and dp polarography techniques. The relevant chemical and electrochemical parameters of 3- aryl azomethine -1,2,4- triazole derivatives were determined experimentally in universal aqueous buffer series as supporting electrolyte at mercury electrode. CPC was used for determination of the number of electrons to elucidate the mechanistic pathway of electrode reaction of aryl azomethine triazole compounds. Digital simulation method was used to confirm the accuracy of the experimental chemical parameters (homogeneous chemical rate constant) and electrochemical parameters (heterogeneous rate constant, symmetry coefficient and redox potential) via matching between the experimental and theoretical cyclic voltammograms.

Three carbazole chromophores derivatives featuring dicyno, cyano, ethyl acetate and dimethyl acetate groups as an acceptor moiety with a ? – conjugated spacer and N-methyl dibenzo[b]pyrole as donor were investigated electrochemically at a platinum electrode in 0.1 mol/L tetraethylammonium chloride (TEACl) in acetonitrile solvent via cyclic voltammetry, convolution – deconvolution transforms and digital simulation techniques. Cyclic voltammetric study revealed that the presence of a single reversible oxidative peak due to two sequential electron transfer (EE scheme) and unidirectional reductive peak which proceed as ECEC mechanism. The electrode reaction pathway, the relevant chemical and electrochemical parameters of the investigated carbazole chromophores were determined using cyclic voltammetry, convolution- deconvolution transforms and chronoamperograms. The extracted electrochemical parameters and the nature of the electrode reaction were verified & confirmed via digital simulation method.

The electrochemical behavior and the electrode reaction of quinolone azo dye compound was investigated using convolutive cyclic voltammetry at mercury electrode in 50% (v/v) ethanolic Britton-Robinson solutions of pH 2.5 – 12.0. Four electrons slow reduction wave was consumed in acidic and alkaline solutions corresponding to the reduction of the more easily N = N center. A second more cathodic irreversible , pH – dependent, 2-electron wave represents the reduction of quinolone ring. Cyclic voltammetry and convolution transforms were used to determine the kinetic parameters of the electroactive species.The extracted electrochemical parameters were confirmed via digital simulation.Controlled potential coulometry technique was used for calculation the overall number of electrons involved in electrode reaction.

The electrochemical behavior of 5-(4-Dimethylamino-benylidene)-1,3-diethyl-2-thioxo-dihydro-pyrimidine-4,6-dione at a plat-inum electrode was studied by semi-integration, semi differentiation of current, and digital simulation methods in 0.1 mol/L tetra-ethylammonium perchlorate (TEACl) in acetonitrile solvent. Cyclic voltammetric study revealed that the presence of three oxidative peaks due to the presence of two electron transfer coupled by chemical reaction (EC) and followed by electron transfer (E) step then EC, i.e., the overall process is ECEEC scheme. On going to negative potential there are two unidirectional reductive peaks associated with the oxida-tive peaks. The elucidation of the electrode behavior, the electrochemical and chemical data of the compound under investigation was de-termined using sweep voltammetry, semi integration & semi differentiation of current. The calculated electrochemical parameters and the nature of the electrode reaction were established & confirmed via generation of the theoretical cyclic voltammograms.

AbstractThe electrochemical behavior of some sulpha drug-Schiff bases at a mercury electrode was examined in the Britton-Robinson universal buffer of various pH values (2.5–11.7) containing 20% v/v) of ethanol using DC-polarography, cyclic voltammetry and controlled-potential electrolysis. The DC-polarograms and cyclic voltammograms of the examined compounds exhibited a single, 2-electron, irreversible, diffusion-controlled cathodic step within the entire pH range which is attributed to the reduction of the azomethine group-CH=N- to -CH2-NH-. The symmetry transfer coefficient (α) of the electrode reaction and the diffusion coefficient (D 0) of the reactant species were determined. The electrode reaction pathway of the compounds at the mercury electrode was suggested to follow the sequence: H+, e−, e−, H+. The dissociation constant of the sulpha drug-Schiff bases, the stability constant and stoichiometry of their complexes with various divalent transition metal ions (Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+) were determined potentiometrically at room temperature.
