Electrogenerated Chemiluminescence Of Transition Metal Octaethylporphyrin And Tetraphenylporphyrin/Tri-N-Propylamine System, Jamie Lee Gray Aug 2018

Electrogenerated Chemiluminescence Of Transition Metal Octaethylporphyrin And Tetraphenylporphyrin/Tri-N-Propylamine System, Jamie Lee Gray

MSU Graduate Theses

The electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) of octaethylporphyrin (OEP), tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and a series of metal-ligand porphyrin complexes (Zinc, Copper, Palladium, Platinum, Ruthenium, Vanadium, Cobalt and Nickel) in CH2Cl2 is reported. ECL was generated upon sweep to positive potentials using tri-n-propylamine (TPrA) as an oxidative-reductive coreactant. ECL efficiencies were between 0.010 and 0.770 using Ru(bpy)3(PF6)2 (bpy = 2,2’-bpyridine) as a relative standard (ecl = 1). The ECL intensity peaks at a potential corresponding to oxidation of the complexes and TPrA, suggesting that the same excited states are formed in both photoluminescence and ECL. Although the ECL was weaker than corresponding PL efficiencies, …


Electrogenerated Chemiluminescence Of Luminophores And Enhancement With Melatonin, Sarah Michelle Roughton Jul 2016

Electrogenerated Chemiluminescence Of Luminophores And Enhancement With Melatonin, Sarah Michelle Roughton

MSU Graduate Theses

The photoluminescent (PL), electrochemical, and electrogenerated chemiluminescent (ECL) properties of 1,5-I-Aedans (N-(iodoacetylaminotheyl)-1-naphthylamine-5-sulfonic acid) in aqueous buffered (KH2PO4) and 50:50 (v/v) acetonitrile:KH2PO4 solutions were obtained. Tri-n-propylamine (TPrA) was used as the oxidative-reductive coreactant. The PL efficiencies (em) were 1.83 in KH2PO4 and 4.81 in mixed solvent compared to Ru(bpy)32+ standard solutions (em = 1.0). 1,5-I-Aedans displayed quasi-reversible oxidative electrochemistry in aqueous solutions and irreversible to quasi-reversible oxidation in mixed solvent. ECL efficiencies (ecl) were obtained by comparison to a Ru(bpy)32+/TPrA (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) standard (ecl = 1) and were higher in KH2PO4 (ecl = 6.8 x 10-4) than in the mixed …
