Studies On The Electrochemical Behavior Of Copper Paratolysulfate And Its Complexes, Ji-Guo Song, Pei-Kang Shen Aug 2004

Studies On The Electrochemical Behavior Of Copper Paratolysulfate And Its Complexes, Ji-Guo Song, Pei-Kang Shen

Journal of Electrochemistry

Copper (II) paratolysulfate has been synthesized and characterized by thermo-gravimetric (TG) measurements and differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) analysis. This salt can easily lose all crystal water and the dehydrated salt does not deliquesce in the air. It is found for the first time that the complex of Cu(p-OTs)_(2)/ethanolamine(1∶1) can catalyze the oxidation of 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol in DMSO and DMF, while the process is difficult to perform in H_(2)O and CH_(3)OH. The electrochemical behaviors of both Cu(p-OTs)_(2) and its complexes with ethanolamine have been studied on platinum electrode in DMSO, DMF, (CH_(3)OH) and H_(2)O respectively. The complexes of various copper salts with …


Synthesis Of (S)-3-Phenylpropane-2-Tert-Butoxycarbonylamino- 1-Thiol And Its Electrochemical Behavior Self-Assembled On Gold, Sun Ru Aug 2004

Synthesis Of (S)-3-Phenylpropane-2-Tert-Butoxycarbonylamino- 1-Thiol And Its Electrochemical Behavior Self-Assembled On Gold, Sun Ru

Journal of Electrochemistry

The synthesis of (S)-3-Phenylpropane-2-tert-butoxycarbonylamino- 1-thiol(N-Boc-APT) from L-phenylalanine was reported. L-Phenylalanine was reduced to the corresponding amino alcohol, protection of the amino group using tert-butyl pyrocarbonate gave (S)-2-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-3-phenylpropane-1-ol, which was then O-mesylated and treated with potassium thioacetate in DMF to give 3-phenylpropane-2-tert- butoxycarbonylamino-1-etylmercapto. After the acetyl group was removed with ammonia in alcohol, the desired target molecular was obtained. The structure of intermediate and target molecular was conformed by IR and ~(1)HNMR. We made N-Boc-APT self-assemble-modificated gold electrode and investigated its electrochemical behavior. The CV results of methylene blue on nano-Au/N-Boc-APT SAM/Au electrode showed that nano-Au could speed this electron transfer …
