Abstract
The nanocomposite of an electron-deficient flat tetrakis-(ethoxycarbonyl) porphyrin copper(II) (Cu-TECP) and reduced grapheme oxide (RGO) was prepared and used for electrochemical detection of dopamine (DA). The prepared nanocomposite was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Electrochemical studies of the modified glass carbon electrode (GCE) were carried out by the cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammograms (DPV) methods. The RGO/Cu-TECP/GCE exhibited enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards the detection of dopamine (DA). The detection limit was 0.58 μM, while the linear range was from 2 to 200 μM ([Formula: see text] 0.997).
