- Description: Glassy carbon electrodes (GCE's) modified with phthalocyanine complexes of Rh, Ru and Os are employed for the catalytic oxidation of cysteine. When cyanide and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) are used as axial ligands giving (DMSO)(Cl)RhIIIPc, [(CN)2RhIIIPc]−, (DMSO)2OsPcII, and [(DMSO)2Ru(II)Pc]·2DMSO complexes, the peak currents for the oxidation of cysteine increase after each scan, indicating an increase in the catalytic activity of the electrode with repetitive scanning. This improvement in the catalytic activity of the GCE after the first scan is attributed to the formation of dimeric π cation radical species at the electrode surface.

- Description: Cysteine, and rat Cd, Zn-metallothionein (Cd, Zn-MT) have been studied electrochemically at glassy carbon electrodes modified with cobalt(II) tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine, [CoIITSPc]4−, where Pc(2-) = phthalocyanine dianion. The electrode was modified by electrodeposition of [CoIITSPc]4−. The anodic currents for the oxidation of cysteine on these electrodes are observed at 0.82 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) in acidic media. The anodic currents for the oxidation of Cd, Zn-MT are observed at 0.90 V at pH 8.4 (Tris buffer).
