Spectroelectrochemical and Voltammetric Studies of L‐DOPA

Abstract: The electrooxidation of l-dopa at GC electrode was studied by in situ UV-vis spectroelectrochemistry (SEC) and cyclic voltammetry. The mechanism of electrooxidation and some reaction parameters were obtained. The results showed that the whole electrooxidation reaction of l-dopa at glassy carbon (GC) electrode was an irreversible electrochemical process followed by a chemical reaction in neutral solution (EC mechanism). The spectroelectrochemical data were treated by the double logarithm method together with no… Show more

“…The origin of the irreversible oxidation peak at about 0.6 V is presently not fully understood. In the latter case, a cathodic peak at about À 0.3 V was, however, seen on the reverse scan most likely due to the reduction of cyclodopa originating from a chemical reaction involving dopaquinone formed upon the oxidation of l-dopa [23].…”

“…It was found in the literature that the levodopa oxidation involves a two-electron process [29,30]. Carbidopa should obey a similar electrochemical oxidation mechanism, since its molecular structure resembles that one of levodopa and others catecholamines.…”

“…To convert DOPAquinone to L-DOPA again, the working potential was 129 mV for electroenzymatic L-DOPA synthesis. Liu et al [19] tested the electrochemical behavior of L-DOPA and reported the cathode and anode potential values as 576 mV and 610 mV, respectively. The authors did the experiment at an acidic pH.…”
