Abstract
8-Aminoquinoline (8AQ) is the building block for many medicinal molecules. However, the redox properties of 8AQ, which are important for understanding the redox stability of drugs based on 8AQ in the human body, have not been studied in detail before. We have used cyclic voltammetry and pulse voltammetric techniques to investigate the anodic as well as the cathodic electrochemical behavior of 8AQ in a wide pH range. We have also applied UV–Vis spectroscopy to get a better understanding of the deprotonation of 8AQ due to pH changes. In addition, quantum chemical studies exploring the energy landscapes of the possible oxidations and reductions were performed, advancing our understanding of the electrochemical phenomena. The results indicate that the oxidation pathway of 8AQ strongly depends on the pH of the solution while reduction occurs according to a single pathway.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry is devoted to all aspects of solid-state chemistry and solid-state physics in electrochemistry.
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry publishes papers on all aspects of electrochemistry of solid compounds, including experimental and theoretical, basic and applied work. It equally publishes papers on the thermodynamics and kinetics of electrochemical reactions if at least one actively participating phase is solid. Also of interest are articles on the transport of ions and electrons in solids whenever these processes are relevant to electrochemical reactions and on the use of solid-state electrochemical reactions in the analysis of solids and their surfaces.
The journal covers solid-state electrochemistry and focusses on the following fields: mechanisms of solid-state electrochemical reactions, semiconductor electrochemistry, electrochemical batteries, accumulators and fuel cells, electrochemical mineral leaching, galvanic metal plating, electrochemical potential memory devices, solid-state electrochemical sensors, ion and electron transport in solid materials and polymers, electrocatalysis, photoelectrochemistry, corrosion of solid materials, solid-state electroanalysis, electrochemical machining of materials, electrochromism and electrochromic devices, new electrochemical solid-state synthesis.
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry makes the professional in research and industry aware of this swift progress and its importance for future developments and success in the above-mentioned fields.
