Macroscale and nanoscale measurements of epinephrine electro-oxidation at graphite electrodes, with different step edge densities, demonstrate unequivocally that the reaction occurs readily at the basal surface, and that step edges are not required for molecular electrocatalysis, in contrast to the current literature model.

Electrochemical methods have been proposed for synthesis of organic compounds, including conversion of CO2. Such methods may provide a basis for environmentally friendly and sustainable methods for chemical production. Nevertheless, electrochemical syntheses are not widely utilized. Several examples of ongoing research are presented that illustrate both the opportunities as well as the challeng...

Abstract The appearance of computers has led to considerable changes in research practices natural sciences, including electrochemistry. current status the computerization electrochemistry is briefly discussed, with conclusion that progress this area not as fast other science disciplines. Some postulates are formulated, referring education young generations electrochemists, might bring improvem...

proving to be a powerful separation technique. Electrochemical (EC) methods offer significant advantages over classical spectroscopic techniques for CE separations because electrochemistry occurs directly at an electrode surface and, thus, the limits of detection are not compromised by the small dimensions inherent in CE. This is in contrast to spectrophotometric detectors, in which the signal ...

Oxidation of [Ru(NH(2)Q)(3)](2+) (NH(2)Q = 8-aminoquinoline) results in intermolecular coupling of 8-aminoquinoline ligands to yield an electroactive polymer. Oxidative polymerization is not observed for [Ru(bpy)(2)(NH(2)Q)](2+) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), where only one 8-aminoquinoline ligand is present.
