Voltammetric Studies of Anthracen-9-ylmethylene-(3,4-dimethyl-isoxazol-5-yl)-amine Compound at Platinium Electrode

Abstract

The voltammetric behavior of anthracen-9-ylmethylene-(3,4-dimethyl-isoxazol-5-yl)-amine compound at Platinium electrode has been performed via convolutive cyclic voltammetry and digital simulation techniques using a conventional platinium electrode in 0.1 mol L-1 tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP) in acetonitrile solvent (CH3CN). The compound loss one electron forming radical cation followed by fast chemical step and the radical cation loss another two electrons producing trication which followed by chemical reaction (ECEC). Cyclic voltammetry and convolutive voltammetry were used for determination of the chemical and the electrochemical parameters of the electrode reaction pathway of the investigated compound. The Electrochemical parameters such as α, ks, Eo , D, and kc of the investigated isoxazol derivative were verified via digital simulation technique. Voltammetric studies of the investigated isoxazol derivative compound under consideration was presented and discussed.
