The electrochemical properties of an anthraquinone-containing Cu2+-promoted desulfurization chemodosimeter (AQCD) in the presence of various metal ions were investigated by voltammetry. AQCD showed voltammetric changes toward divalent metal ions (M2+), which are similar to those of anthraquinone (AQ) and 1-aminoanthraquinone (AQNH2) with the metal ions except Cu2+. This can be explained on the electrostatic interaction (AQCD-M2+) and chemodosimetric reaction (AQCD-Cu2+).
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.
