Abstract
Fluphenazine, an important tranquilizer, was found to undergo effective accumulation on dodecanethiol (DDT) self-assembled monolayer modified gold electrode (i.e. DDT/Au) and generated two anodic peaks at about 0.7 and 0.79 V (vs. SCE) in 0.05 M Na2B4O7 (pH = 9.3) buffer solution. Sensitive and quantitative measurement of fluphenazine based on the former anodic peak was established under optimum conditions. The peak current was linear to fluphenazine concentration in the range from 5 × 10−7 to 5 × 10−5 M, with a detection limit of 5 × 10−9 M. This method was successfully applied to the determination of fluphenazine in drug tablets and proved to be reliable compared with UV spectrophotometry. In the presence of fluphenazine, the electrochemical oxidation of phenylephrine was catalyzed. The DDT self-assembled monolayer was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, surface Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and electrochemical probing.
