A nano-structured Ni(II)–baicalein(BA) film is electrodeposited on a multiwall carbon nanotube paste electrode in alkaline solution. The modified electrode shows electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of hydroxylamine. Kinetic parameters such as the electron transfer coefficient α, rate constant ks of the electrode reaction and the catalytic rate constant kcat of the catalytic reaction are determined. The catalytic currents present linear dependence on the concentration of hydroxylamine from 2.5×10-6 mol•L-1 to 4.0×10-4 mol•L-1 by amperometry. The detection limit and sensitivity are 6.0×10-7 mol•L-1 and 31.2 mA•L•mol-1, respectively. The modified electrode has been applied to determine hydroxylamine in water samples with satisfactory results.

We propose chlorpromazine (CHP) as a new mediator for the rapid, sensitive, and highly selective voltammetric determination of homocysteine (Hcy) using multiwall carbon nanotube paste electrode (MWCNTPE). The experimental results showed that the carbon nanotube paste electrode has a highly electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of Hcy in the presence of CHP as a mediator. Cyclic voltammetry, double potential step chronoamperometry, and square wave voltammetry (SWV) are used to investigate the suitability of CHP at the surface of MWCNTPE as a mediator for the electrocatalytic oxidation of Hcy in aqueous solutions. The kinetic parameters of the system, including electron transfer coefficient, and catalytic rate constant were also determined using the electrochemical approaches. In addition, SWV was used for quantitative analysis. SWV showed wide linear dynamic range (0.1–210.0 μM Hcy) with a detection limit of 0.08 μM Hcy. Finally, this method was also examined as a selective, simple, and precise electrochemical sensor for the determination of Hcy in real samples.
