Abstract:
Ordered mesoporous carbon-Au nanoparticles (OMC-Au) nanocomposites were synthesized by a one-step chemical reduction route, and an OMC-Au/L-Lysine/Au composite film-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was constructed. The microstructure of OMC and OMC-Au/L-Lysine/Au composite films were characterized by SEM, and the preparation process of OMC-Au/L-Lysine/Au modified glassy carbon electrode was investigated using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The electrocatalytic oxidation of hydroquinone and catechol on the modified electrode was discussed by differential pulse voltammetry in this study, and a sensor for separate determination of hydroquinone and catechol based on OMC-Au/L-Lysine/Au modified glassy carbon electrode was developed. Under the optimal conditions, the cathodic peak current was linearly related to hydroquinone concentration over ranges from 1.0 x 10(-6) mol x L(-1) to 8.0 x 10(-4) mol x L(-1) with a detection limit of 3.0 x 10(-7) mol x L(-1), and linearly related to catechol concentration from 1.0 x 10(-7) mol x L(-1) to 8.0 x 10(-5) mol x L(-1) with a detection limit of 8.0 x 10(-7) mol x L(-1).
