- Description
- In this study we report on the synthesis of tetrakis [4-(4-(5-chloro-1H-benzo [d]imidazol-2-yl) phenoxy phthalocyaninato] manganese (III) chloride (MnPc). The MnPc was first used to modify a glassy carbon electrode, followed by the growth of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto the MnPc modified electrode to form MnPc-AgNPs modified electrode. The modified electrode was characterized using cydic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, scanning electrochemical microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The modified MnPc-AgNPs electrode was employed for the detection of hydrazine. The MnPc-AgNPs gave better current responses for electrooxidation of hydrazine relative to MnPc and AgNPs, individually. The catalytic rate constant was 1.90 x 10(5 )M(-1) S-1, with the detection limit (LoD) of 2.42 pM (using 3 sigma notation), and sensitivity of 61.56 mu A mM(-1), for MnPc-AgNPs.
