Seven novel ferrocene derivatives containing (methylamino)benzonitrile and N-methylnitroaniline groups (3a-3f and 4) have been synthesized by conventional methods and characterized by FT-IR, NMR and cyclic voltammetry. The electrochemical behavior of these compounds (3a-3f) has been studied by cyclic voltammetry measurements at a platinum electrode in acetonitrile/0.1 M TBAP. The ferrocenyl group in all compounds showed similar reversible one-electron redox process, suggesting that the ferrocene moieties are equivalent and that there are no interactions among them. The formal potential, , is shifted to the more positive potential, indicating that the (methylamino)benzonitrile and N-methylnitroaniline introduced to ferrocene moiety exercise an electron-withdrawing effect.

The electrochemical properties of 4-[(anthracen -9-ylmethylene)-amino]-1, 5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-pyrazol-3-one have been carried out using cyclic voltammetry and convolution - deconvolution voltammetry combined with digital simulation technique at a platinum electrode in 0.1 mol/L tetraethyl ammonium chloride (TEACl) in solvent acetonitrile (CH3CN). In switching the potential to positive scan, the compound was oxidized by loss of one electron forming radical cataion followed by fast chemical step and the radical cation loss another two electrons producing trication which followed by chemical reaction (ECEEC). The investigated compound was reduced via consumption of two consecutive electrons to form radical anion followed by fast chemical step and the radical anion gain another electron to form dianion followed by chemical step (ECEC mechanism). The electrode reaction pathway and the chemical and electrochemical parameters of the investigated compound were determined using cyclic voltammetry, convolutive voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The Electrochemical data such as a, ks, Eo , D, and kc of the investigated pyrazole derivative were evaluated expeimentally and verified via digital simulation technique Electrochemical behaviour of the pyrazole compound under consideration was presented and discussed.

The bis(octacyanophthalocyaninato)neodymium(III) was synthesized and its electrochemical behavior in N,N-dimethylformamide ( DMF ) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). Multiple redox reactions were observed on the cyclic voltammogram, although the voltammetric feature was complicated due to aggregation. With the aid of SWV, it was concluded that the redox potentials of the complex positively shifted by about 700 mV compared with potentials of the unsubstituted complex, which was ascribed to the strong electron-withdrawn effect of the substituted cyano group.

The electrochemical behavior of N,N-dimethyl-N′-phenylformamidine hydrochloride was studied on a platinum electrode. The oxidation peak at +0.90 V vs. Ag/Ag+ 0.01 M (in CH3CN −0.1 M LiClO4) was assigned to the oxidation of the chloride anion. N,N-Dimethyl-N′-(4-chlorophenyl)formamidine and N,N-dimethyl-N′-(2-chlorophenyl)formamidine were isolated from the preparative electrolysis of this amidine hydrochloride. The electrochemical behavior of N-phenylbenzamidine hydrochloride and N-phenylcyclohex-3-enecarboxamidine hydrochloride was also studied at platinum and at vitreous carbon. Cyclic voltammetry of a number of amidines was performed. Only N-arylbenzamidines showed a reduction peak at potentials less negative than −3.0 V vs. Ag/Ag+ 0.01 M (discharge potential of the medium at vitreous carbon). Preparative electrooxidations of all amidines studied were unsuccessful because of strong and rapid passivation of the anode. Keywords: amidine, electrochemical oxidation, chloride, amidine hydrochloride.

In this paper, we first fabricated a nanoPt modified platinum electrode. Then through a simple method, the electrode surface was introduced with a submonolayer of bismuth that acted as an effective promoter. Cyclic voltammetry and other characterizations were employed. The obtained Bi III / nanoPt / Pt electrode exhibited two greatly increased oxidation peaks at negative and positive potential areas, respectively. The signals were far larger than that of platinum electrode because of the large true surface area of nanoparticles and the catalysis of bismuth adsorbed on platinum. In the presence of bismuth, the platinum active sites could combine with more OH - from bismuth hydroxyl to form a new active site for the oxidation of glucose. The prepared Bi III / nanoPt / Pt electrode given high sensitivity and excellent linearship to glucose detection and showed the potential application in the areas of electrocatalysis or electroanalysis.

Abstract Nanoplates of Cu2WSe4 (~50 nm) were synthesized via a hot-injection method by one-pot selenation of WCl6 and Cu(acac)2. This synthetic route provided another path towards deciphering the intrinsic electrochemical properties of Cu2MSe4 (M = Mo or W), where their nanoparticles were previously synthesized via a metathesis route. Cation-dependent cathodic events and surface activation anodic events were identified by cyclic voltammetry in acetonitrile.

Ferrocene (FcH) derivatives monosubstituted by palmitoyl (1), hexadecyl (2), 1-adamantoyl (3) or 1-adamantylmethyl (4) groups were sythesized and characterized by NMR, mass and 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy. The structure of 1-adamantoylferrocene was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Cyclic voltammetry on gold and glass-like carbon electrodes demonstrated that the compounds can serve as electrochemical standards for special cases since their ferrocene/ferricinium redox potential remains stable and reversible, while the properties such as solubility, diffusion coefficients and surface tension are strongly solvent-dependent.

Graphene oxide (GO)-modified polypyrrole (PPy) coatings were obtained by electrochemical methods in the presence of the anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The structure, morphology, and electrochemical properties of the coatings were assessed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cyclic voltammetry at varying scan rates, respectively. The properties of the obtained coatings were analyzed with the GO and PPy loadings and electrodeposition mode. The hybrid coatings obtained galvanostatically showed a coarser appearance than those deposited by cyclic voltammetry CV mode and improved performance, respectively, which was further enhanced by GO and PPy loading. The capacitance enhancement can be attributed to the SDS surfactant that well dispersed the GO sheets, thus allowing the use of lower GO content for improved contribution, while the choice of suitable electrodeposition parameters is highly important for improving the applicability of GO-modified PPy coatings in energy storage applications.

Nanoparticles of Ag with different sizes and structures were obtained and studied. Two methods for reductions of Ag ions were employed, chemical reduction by sodium borohydride and ethylene glycol. Cuboctahedral and icosahedral structures were obtained. Molecular simulations were carried out in order to evaluate the reactivity of both structures. On the other hand, the electrochemical activity and antibacterial effect (E. coli) of the cuboctahedral and icosahedral structures were measured experimentally. The results obtained by molecular simulation, cyclic voltammetry, and antibacterial effect were compared and discussed in this work.
