To extract relevant thermodynamic and kinetic data from electrochemical analysis of redox systems exhibiting strong surface activity, there's a crucial need to decipher the underlying electrochemical mechanism in the system being examined. The \"split net peak\" phenomenon, a defining characteristic observed in all surface-active redox systems featuring fast electron transfer under square-wave voltammetry conditions, has been investigated in this study to establish diagnostic criteria for identifying surface electrochemical mechanisms associated with preceding, subsequent, regenerative, and reactant-inactivating chemical reactions. This understanding can be achieved by tracking the influence of the chemical reaction rate on the split square-wave voltammetric peaks in a particular electrochemical mechanism. The approach reported in the current work enables a very simple and precise differentiation between the elaborated mechanisms frequently encountered in protein-film voltammetry methodologies.","PeriodicalId":18088,"journal":{"name":"Macedonian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering","volume":"405 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139160778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After optimization, satisfactory analytical figures of merit were obtained for the determination of both β-blockers: concentration linear dynamic range of over one to two orders of magnitude, limits of detection (LODs) from 1.3 to 5.4 ng/ml for BF and from 1.2 to 3.7 ng/ml for AT, limits of quantification (LOQs) from 4.5 to 18.1 ng/ml for BF and from 4.0 to 12.5 ng/ml for AT. Relative standard deviations (RSDs) were between 2.1 and 5.3 %, according to the β-blockers. The spectrofluorimetric method was applied to the analysis of fortified river water and wastewater (effluent) collected in Senegal and France and spiked with both β-blockers.

The coal and sediment layers were formed in fresh-water bogs during the Lower Miocene period. The total amount of extractable PAHs was determined by gas chromatography with a triple quad mass detector (GC-MS-MS), and it ranged from 449 to 10585 μg l−1 in all sediments. Eight of the total 16 PAHs, which ranged from 175.17 to 658.42 μg l−1, include benzo[a]anthracene, chrysene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, benzo[a]pyrene, dibenzo[a,h]anthracene, benzo[g,h,i]perylene, and indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene, which are regarded as potentially carcinogenic, indicating a higher possibility of adverse ecological effects. Medium molecular-weight (MMW) PAHs were found to be predominant in all sediments. PAH concentrations are affected by several factors, such as carbon content, H/C mole ratio, and (less significant) O/C mole ratio. The non-existence of a correlation between the N/C ratio and other parameters indicates unspecific changes which accompany the original organic matter. The lower-sulfur Ct sediment samples were found to have a higher PAH content than higher sulfur IM samples, leading to the conclusion that the PAH content of sediments may be related to the depositional environment.","PeriodicalId":18088,"journal":{"name":"Macedonian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42124140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to this method, Sn was electrodeposited firstly in potentiostatic or galvanostatic regime on Cu electrodes in the form of dendrites, then Pd was galvanostatically electrodeposited in the second step on the electrode with the electrodeposited Sn dendrites. The produced Sn-Pd electrocatalysts were compared with an electrocatalyst obtained by Pd electrodeposition on a bare Cu electrode. The morphological and elemental analysis of Sn-Pd and Pd electrocatalysts was performed by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) techniques. The dendrites of various shapes and degree of branching were obtained by Sn deposition depending on electrodeposition regime, while Pd was electrodeposited in a form of compact Pd islands on both Sn dendrites and the Cu electrode. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was applied for the electrochemical examination of Sn-Pd and Pd catalysts towards the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) in the alkaline solution. The electrocatalyst Sn0.6-Pd0.4 with an atomic ratio of 60 at.% Sn-40 at.% Pd showed higher oxidation efficiency and better tolerance towards intermediate species in EOR than the other examined electrocatalysts . It was shown that the lower fraction of Pd, relative to Sn, was crucial to achieving optimal synergy of Sn with Pd thus contributing to enhanced electrochemical behavior regarding EOR.","PeriodicalId":18088,"journal":{"name":"Macedonian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering","volume":"185 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41274008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These analogs contain an electrophilic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl moiety (Michael acceptor). Several key biological processes are connected/controlled with thiol alkylation (glutathione, cysteine, cysteine peptide residues). The most likely reaction is the Michael addition between the α,β-unsaturated acceptor and a corresponding thiol. 2,6-Bisarylidenecyclohexanone and 3,5-bisarylidenepiperidin-4-one scaffolds offer convenient tunability of electrophilicity and redox properties of the Michael acceptor by the introduction of various substituents. In this study, several MACs were prepared by Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction, and their reactivity with 2-(dimethylamino)ethanethiol was evaluated. For this purpose, based on the UV-Vis spectra of the analogs and thiol(s), a proper method for spectrophotometric evaluation of their reactivity with 2-(dimethylamino)ethanethiol was optimized. The relative reactivity of the analogs was 7 > 2 > 5 > 4 > 1 ≈ 6.
