Abstract
The enzyme catalysed oxidation of ferrocene and some substituted ferrocenes to the corresponding ferricinium ions by hydrogen peroxide in the presence of native or immobilized horseradish peroxidase has been studied. Initial and maximum rates of oxidation have been determined. It was found that the oxidation was independent of the hydrogen peroxide concentration. The oxidation of ferrocene was effected also by horseradish peroxidase in a coupled system with glucose oxidase in the absence of any added hydrogen peroxide.
