Voltammetric behaviour of monomeric fac-trioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes with aminocarboxylic ligands in aqueous media
1992
Abstract Cyclic voltammetry, polarography and controlled-potential coulometry experiments have been used to characterize the electrochemical reduction of fac-MoO3L2− complexes (L = aspartic acid or iminodiacetic acid) in aqueous media. These complexes are reduced in two irreversible proton-assisted steps to give an oxo-bridged molybdenum(V) species and then to a molybdenum(III) dimer species. At pH 4.5, the former reduction step for the iminodiacetic acid ligand occurs at Ep = −0.75 V, while the second one appears at −1.12 V vs SCE. The overall electrochemical process can be described in terms of a homogeneous chemical reaction, coupled between two electron transfers (ECE mechanism), that i…
The role of potassium and hydrogen ions in the Prussian Blue ⇆ Everitt's Salt process
1998
Cyclic voltammetry experiments have proved very useful in the knowledge and understanding of the role of the potassium and hydrogen ions during the Prussian Blue ⇄ Everitt's Salt process. While potassium ions act as a stoichiometric reactant, the hydrogen ions play a very important role in the kinetics of the electron-hopping process. The entropy change for the reaction PB ⇄ ES has proved to be dependent on the degree of crystallinity of the film, indicating that this entropy change is related to the fixation of inner counterions on the crystal structure of the films.
Electrochemical study of dinuclear ruthenium(II)—arene compounds: Electrogeneration of Ru(II)—Ru(I) species
1987
Abstract The preparation and characterization of Ru(II)—arene compounds [{RuCl2(p-cym)}2(μ-L-L)] where p-cym = p-MeC6H4CHMe2; and L-L = diphenylphosphinomethane (I), 1,1′-bisdiphenylphosphinoferrocene (II), pyrazine (III) and 4,4′-bipyridine (IV), are described. Electrochemical data for these compounds obtained by cyclic voltammetry and coulometry are reported. The electrochemical reduction of compounds I or II yields ruthenium(O) species. However, compounds III or IV containing ligands with delocalized Π orbitals undergo one-electron reduction. The ESR signal detected during the electrolysis of compounds III or IV is consistent with one delocalized electron through the whole dinuclear unit.
Transition metal–saccharide chemistry: synthesis, characterization and solution stability studies of cis-dioxomolybdenum saccharide complexes
1998
Six cis-dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes of simple monosaccharides (D-glucose, D-fructose, D-galactose, D-mannose, D-ribose and D-xylose) have been synthesized and characterized by a variety of analytical and spectral methods. Both the solution and solid-state studies have supported the presence of dimeric structures, formed through the cis-MoO2 moieties and the bridging saccharide units. Solution stability of these complexes as a function of time has also been addressed.
Synthesis, structure, physicochemical characterization and theoretical evaluation of non-covalent interaction energy of a polymeric copper(II)-hydraz…
2019
Abstract One dimensional polymeric copper-hydrazone complex {[Cu(H0.5L)(µ1,3-SCN)]0.5ClO4·0.5MeOH}n (1) has been synthesized with Cu(ClO4)2·xH2O and N'-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene)acetohydrazide (HL) in presence of NaSCN. The ligand and the complex have been characterized by several spectroscopic techniques (IR, UV–Vis and EPR), cyclic voltammetry and the structure of 1 has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex is an infinite one dimensional polymer bridged by thiocyanate. The magneto-structural correlation has been determined and the non-covalent interactions present in the molecule have been energetically evaluated by means of DFT calculations.

Synthesis, characterization and crystal structure of 2-dicyanomethylene-1,3-bis(ferrocenylmethyl)-1,3-diazolidine
1993
By reaction of N,N′-ethylenebis(ferrocenylmethylamine)1 with tetracyanoethylene in dichloromethane the yellow compound 2-dicyanomethylene-1,3-bis(ferrocenylmethyl)-1,3-diazolidine 2 can be isolated. The single-crystal structure of 2 has been determined. It crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric trigonal space group P3221, a= 12.255(2), c= 13.831(7)A, Z= 3. Refinement of the atomic parameters by least-squares techniques gave a final R factor of 0.038 (R′= 0.034) for 1782 observed reflections having I > 2.5δ(I). Anomalous values of the bond distances and the vinyl carbon chemical shift in the 13C NMR spectrum of 2 are explained on the basis of a polarization due to a combination of the elect…
Electrochemical behaviour of inorganic redox substances dispersed into Nafion® films
1999
Abstract The voltammetric response of a Nafion ® film deposited on an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode was studied. It was observed that the response is affected by the thickness of the Nafion ® layer. Also, the voltammograms show differences depending on the concentration and composition of the supporting electrolyte solution. The ITO–Nafion ® system can be stabilised by repetitive cyclic voltammetry, and then the inner hydrogen reduction is not detected by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Different substances were dispersed into the Nafion ® matrix in order to study their electrochemical response.
Structure and properties of zwitterionic polysoaps: functionalization by redox-switchable moieties
2007
Redoxactive monomeric and polymeric surfactants containing viologen and N-alkylated nicotinic acid moieties were synthesized. These systems are potentially able to trigger reversible changes of self-organization by creation or removal of a charge via a redox reaction. Hence, they are investigated with respect to solubility, aggregation behavior, and their electrochemical properties in water. — All monomers, but only the viologen polymers are water-soluble and drastically decrease the surface tension of water. Critical micelle concentrations are observed for the monomers only. — The chemical reversibility of the redox reactions of the compounds in water was investigated using cyclic voltamme…
A Theoretical and Experimental Study of Electrochemical pH Control at Gold Interdigitated Microband Arrays
2021
In electroanalysis, solution pH is a critical parameter that often needs to be adjusted and controlled for the detection of particular analytes. This is most commonly performed by the addition of chemicals, such as strong acids or bases. Electrochemical in-situ pH control offers the possibility for the local adjustment of pH at the point of detection, without additional reagents. FEA simulations have been performed to guide experimental design for both electroanalysis and in-situ control of solution pH. No previous model exists that describes the generation of protons at an interdigitated electrode array in buffered solution with one comb acting as a protonator, and the other as the sensor.…
