Abstract
In this work, a screen-printed electrode (SPE) modified by 1,3/1,4-diazines was prepared for the rapid and sensitive determination of nitrobenzene (NB). The obtained results indicated enhanced cathodic currents of direct NB reduction into hydroxylaminophenol on the diazine-modified SPEs. The enhanced effect was most likely due to the combination of complexation and collisional processes of diazines towards nitroaromatic compounds and also the diazine-modified electrodes’ increased electroconductivity. The best electrochemical responses were obtained in square wave voltammetry mode by using the carbazolyl substituted diazines as a component of the sensitive layer, which was assembled by co-electropolymerization with the unsubstituted carbazole on the electrode during 5 cycles. The low detection limit estimated as 0.107 μM and wide linear range (1–1000 µM) enables NB in water and food samples to be determined. The developed modified electrode was applied in the analysis of commercial honey samples.
