Synthesis, characterization and the electrocatalytic behaviour of nickel (II) tetraamino-phthalocyanine chemically linked to single walled carbon nanotubes
In this work we report on the synthesis, characterization and the electrochemical behavior of amide linked nickel (II) tetraamino-phthalocyanine (NiTAPc)-single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) nanomaterials (NiTAPc-SWCNT (linked)). UV–vis, XRD, IR and Raman spectroscopies were used in characterizatio...

| description | In this work we report on the synthesis, characterization and the electrochemical behavior of amide linked nickel (II) tetraamino-phthalocyanine (NiTAPc)-single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) nanomaterials (NiTAPc-SWCNT (linked)). UV–vis, XRD, IR and Raman spectroscopies were used in characterization whilst cyclic voltammetry was used to study the electrochemical behavior of NiTAPc-SWCNT (linked)-GCE. Relative to the bare glassy carbon electrode (bare-GCE), SWCNT-GCE, NiTAPc-GCE, and NiTAPc/SWCNT (mixed)-GCE, the NiTAPc-SWCNT (linked)-GCE gave the best current responses for the oxidation of 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME). The catalytic rate constant is of the magnitude of 103 M−1 s−1 while the detection limit (LOD) is 0.15 μM using the 3δ notation, with a sensitivity of 2.53 μA μM−1 cm−2. |
