ABSTRACT:The complexes between copper(I) halides and N,N -diphenylthiourea have been investigated by cyclic voltammetry to compare their structure and behaviour in solid state with those in solution. The halides under investigation include chloride, bromide, and iodide. Chloride and bromide complexes did not show the redox reaction, suggesting that they formed the strongest bond with the metal and hence the oxidation was inhibited. In contrast, iodide behaved differently because of the two peaks of halide and trihalide oxidations. One peak disappeared, leaving the other halide-oxidized peak shifted to a more positive voltage due to the bonding with the metal. In solution, all complexes of N,N -diphenylthiourea were derived from the oxidation process and exhibited oxidation potentials shifted to positive values.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
