In situ AFM study of proton-assisted electrochemical oxidation/reduction of microparticles of organic dyes
2008
In situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) images of crystals of organic dyes alizarin, indigo and morin have been monitored during the course of their solid-state electrochemical oxidation/reduction in contact with aqueous acetate buffer. Such images indicate that proton-assisted reduction and oxidation processes are localized in a shallow layer in the vicinity of the particle/electrolyte interface, in agreement with expectances from the Lovric and Scholz model with significantly restricted proton diffusion across the solids.

Kinetic and Mechanistic Aspects of a Poly(o-Toluidine)-Modified Gold Electrode. 2. Alternating Current Electrogravimetry Study in H2SO4 Solutions
2012
International audience; Electrodeposited poly(o-toluidine) (POT) on gold electrodes was investigated in 0.5 M H2SO4 aqueous solutions using alternating current electrogravimetry (simultaneous electrochemical impedance and mass transfer functions). The kinetic aspects of the three different redox transitions proposed for this polymer (leucoemeraldine-polaron transition, polaron-bipolaron transition, and bipolaron-pernigraniline transition) and the species involved, cation (hydrated proton), anion (bisulfate ion), and free solvent (water), are studied by means of the mass impedance technique. An ionic transfer model is proposed with coherent results where anion transfer is the fastest process…
Spectral studies of zinc octacarboxyphthalocyanine aggregation
2009
The association of zinc octacarboxyphthalocyanine, was studied using UV–vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectroscopy; the effects of dye concentration, pH and solvents on spectra were discussed. Calculations showed that the dye dimerized in aqueous solutions ranging from 5.0 × 10−7 to 5.0 × 10−5 mol/dm3, at 25 °C. The dimerization constant of 106 dm3/mol and the spectral Q band shift of 1185 cm−1 imparted by dimerization indicated strong π–π interactions between phthalocyanine molecules. Red S1 fluorescence of the dye monomer was observed in various solutions which was quenched owing to molecular association and other factors. The strong influence of pH on both aggregation and fluo…
On the Existence of Different Zeolite-Associated Topological Redox Isomers. Electrochemistry of the Y Zeolite-Associated Mn(Salen)N3 Complex
2002
The electrochemical properties of Y zeolite-associated MnIII(salen)N3 (salen = trans-(R,R)-1,2-bis(salicyldeneamino)cyclohexane) has been investigated using polymer film electrodes immersed into neutral aqueous solutions. Zeolite Y-associated Mn(III)−salen complexes are reduced in one-electron reversible process at −0.25 V versus SCE. The electrochemical response is discussed in terms of the existence of two topological redox isomers: a weakly boundary-associated Mn(salen) complex, whose electrochemical response corresponds to a reversible one-electron transfer controlled by diffusion of the positive ions of the supporting electrolyte through the zeolite surface windows and channels, and a…
Chromia on silica and zirconia oxides as recyclable oxidizing system: structural and surface characterization of the active chromium species for oxid…
2004
Chromium oxide samples supported over silica and zirconia were prepared by wet impregnation of the supports with aqueous solution of CrO3. In order to investigate the influence of the preparation method on the chromium dispersion and oxidation state, one sample was prepared by sol-gel technique. The materials were structurally characterized by XRD analysis. The oxidation states of chromium species were investigated by XPS, DRS and TPR/TPO techniques. EPR analyses were also carried out for the sample Cr/SiO2, that due to the low crystalline state exhibits broad XPS signals. In this case, particular attention was paid to the presence of Cr(V) and Cr (III) species and their concentration. The …
Study of Redox Processes in Zeolite Y-Associated 2,4,6-Triphenylthiopyrylium Ion by Square Wave Voltammetry
2003
The electrochemical responses of 2,4,6-triphenylthiopyrylium ion (TTP+) in solution and attached to zeolite Y (TTP@Y) are described using cyclic and square wave voltammetries upon immersion of zeolite-modified polymer film electrodes in MeCN (LiClO4, Et4NClO4, and BuN4PF6 electrolytes) and aqueous (LiNO3, NaNO3, and KNO3 electrolytes) media. The electrochemistry of TTP@Y in contact with Bu4NPF6/MeCN is identical to that of TTP(BF4) in solution, with reduction processes at −0.25, −0.74, and −1.36 V vs SCE, and oxidation steps at +0.85 and +1.11 V. This response differs from those obtained for TTP@Y in Et4NClO4/MeCN and LiClO4/MeCN electrolytes. In contact with aqueous electrolytes, TTP@Y dis…
Solubilization control by redox-switching of polysoaps
2008
Reversible changes in the self-organization of polysoaps may be induced by controlling their charge numbers via covalently bound redox moieties. This is illustrated with two viologen polysoaps, which in response to an electrochemical stimulus, change their solubility and aggregation in water, leading from homogeneously dissolved and aggregated molecules to collapsed ones and vice verse. Using the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM), it could be shown that the reversibility of this process is better than 95% in 16 cycles.
Dioxygen reduction by cobalt(II) octaethylporphyrin at liquid|liquid interfaces.
2010
Oxygen reduction catalyzed by cobalt(II) (2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrin) [Co(OEP)] at soft interfaces is studied by voltammetry and biphasic reactions. When Co(OEP) is present in a solution of 1,2-dichloroethane in contact with an aqueous acidic solution, oxygen is reduced if the interface is positively polarized (water phase versus organic phase). This reduction reaction is facilitated when an additional electron donor, here ferrocene, is present in excess in the organic phase.
