Abstract
5-[ o-(4-Bromine amyloxy)phenyl]-10,15,20-triphenylporphrin ( o-BrPETPP) was electropolymerized on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE), and the electrocatalytic properties of the prepared film electrode response to dopamine (DA) oxidation were investigated. A stable o-BrPETPP film was formed on the GCE under ultrasonic irradiation through a potentiodynamic process in 0.1 M H 2SO 4 between −1.1 V and 2.2 V versus a saturated calomel electrode (SCE) at a scan rate of 0.1 V s −1. The film electrode showed high selectivity for DA in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA), and a 6-fold greater sensitivity to DA than that of the bare GCE. In the 0.05 mol L −1 phosphate buffer (pH 6.0), there was a linear relationship between the oxidation current and the concentration of DA solution in the range of 5 × 10 −7 mol L −1 to 3 × 10 −5 mol L −1. The electrode had a detection limit of 6.0 × 10 −8 mol L −1(S/N = 3) when the differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) method was used. In addition, the charge transfer rate constant k = 0.0703 cm s −1, the transfer coefficient α = 0.709, the electron number involved in the rate determining step n α = 0.952, and the diffusion coefficient D o = 3.54 10 −5 cm 2 s −1 were determined. The o-BrPETPP film electrode provides high stability, sensitivity, and selectivity for DA oxidation.
