Properties of gold electrode modified with dimercaptosuccinic acid and electrochemical behavior of copper histidine complex

Аннотация

A self-assembled monolayer of meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid was prepared on the surface of gold disc electrode. The modified electrode was characterized using cyclic voltammetry in copper(II) solution and cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in the presence of potassium hexacyanoferrate( II)/(III) and hexaammineruthenium (II)/(III) chloride. Binding of copper(II) histidine complex (Cu–His) onto the electrode was successfully achieved for a wide range of tested concentrations, as shown with adsorption transfer stripping voltammetry. Electrode response (logΔI_p) was linearly proportional to logc(Cu–His) with correlation coefficient R³² = 0.9839.
