✦ Synopsis


The surface electrochemical response of the Co II /Co I redox process of tetraaminophthalocyaninatocobalt(II) (Co II TAPc) adsorbed on a graphite electrode, was studied in the pH range of 2-13. In aqueous solution, the Co II TAPc adsorbed graphite electrode displays very strong electrocatalytic activity toward N 2 O reduction to N 2 , a process which was examined by cyclic and rotating disk electrode voltammetries. The possible application of this Co II TAPc modified electrode in N 2 O analysis was explored.
