Studies in allyl alcohol rarely used in electrochemical investigations pointed to the importance of the carbon-carbon double bond as electrode deactivation was remarkably faster compared with its saturated analog solvent. Similarly, the use of the other unsaturated solvent mesityl oxide in the electropolymerization of naphthols resulted in different findings compared with methyl isobutyl ketone. As dimethyl formamide was the best choice concerning the solubility of products, it was successfully tested in electrode renewal after deactivation in an aqueous solution. The increase in dimethyl formamide content led to more and more improved reproducibility of the currents of the outlined aromatic compounds. Naphthol isomers were assessed in the suppression of layer growth originating from the electrooxidation of another monomer phloroglucinol. Its simultaneous electrooxidation with naphthol monomers had a dramatic effect on layer morphology and it was found that instead of a coherent organic layer originating from the homopolymerization of phloroglucinol, the copolymerization with naphthols led to the development of more porous and rougher deposits. The suppressed electropolymerization thus increased sensitivity towards a chosen redox active compound, 4-methoxyphenol.}, keywords = {Dopamine; BEHAVIOR; THIN-FILM; Chemistry, Physical; ELECTROCHEMICAL REDUCTION; electropolymerization; CARBON-PASTE ELECTRODE; Non-aqueous solvent; Naphthols; NAPHTHOL GREEN B; POLY(5-AMINO-1-NAPHTHOL); POLY(2-NAPHTHOL)}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2571-9637}, pages = {164-180}, orcid-numbers = {Szabó, Péter/0000-0003-0827-3583} } @article{MTMT:33204828, title = {Studies of Phenol Electrooxidation Performed on Platinum Electrode in Dimethyl Sulphoxide Medium.

Voltammetric curves recorded by a platinum microelectrode varied significantly under different experimental conditions in cases of 4-chlorophenol, 4- tert-butylphenol, and 4-nitrophenol. In the case of 4-methoxyphenol and 4- tert-butylphenol, when the experiments were performed in the lower concentration range in acetonitrile, the plateau current and peak current showed linear dependence on phenol concentration. Therefore, these ranges offer opportunity for further characterization. The electrode reaction of 4-methoxyphenol was found to be a diffusion-controlled process in the solvents applied (water, acetonitrile, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethyl formamide, nitrobenzene, acetone, dichloromethane, methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol). Diffusion coefficients of 4-methoxyphenol were determined with a microelectrode using the steady-state voltammograms. Diffusion coefficients of other phenols were measured only in acetonitrile with a macroelectrode. In agreement with known theories, the diffusion coefficients showed inversely proportional relationships with the solvent viscosities. Special care was needed in 1-pentanol solvent since the increasing anodic peaks appeared after the first scan and overlaid with the sigmoidal-shaped regular microelectrode voltammograms. This observation is probably due to formation of adhering residual electroactive products.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1480-3291}, pages = {297-305} } @article{MTMT:33550179, title = {Detection of Residual 2-Phenylphenol on Lemon Rind by Electrochemically Deposited Poly(hydroxybenzaldehyde) and Poly(hydroxybenzoic acid) Polymeric Stackings as Electrode Modifiers}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33550179}, author = {Kiss, László and Nagymihaly, Zoltan and Szabó, Péter and Kollár, László and Kunsági-Máté, Sándor}, doi = {10.3390/ma16010357}, journal-iso = {MATERIALS}, journal = {MATERIALS}, volume = {16}, unique-id = {33550179}, abstract = {This study explores the characteristics of electrodeposition of the three hydroxybenzaldehyde isomers and selected hydroxybenzoic acids (4-hydroxybenzoic acid, salicylic acid, 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid) from mesityl oxide solvent. Similar to recent advances of this solvent, used by electrochemical studies, the carbon–carbon double bond had significant influence on the formation of polymers from the outlined molecules. In case of most substrates the peak currents increased to a steady-state but electropolymerization of some substrates caused significant deactivation. Scanning electron microscopic and complementary voltammetric studies facilitated that the electrochemically formed polymers are present on the electrode surface in stackings. In viewpoint of analysis of 2-phenylphenol, the modifying deposit formed from 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde was the best with 5 µM detection limit obtained with differential pulse voltammetry. Furthermore, a new procedure was chosen for the involvement of a cavitand derivative into the organic layers with the purpose to improve the layer selectivity (subsequent electrochemical polymerization in an other solution). Further studies showed that in this way the sensitivities of as-modified electrodes were a little worse than without this step, thus indicating that application of this step is disadvantageous. Recovery studies of 2-phenylphenol were carried out on lemon rind without any treatment, and it was compared with the case when the outer yellow layer was removed by rasping.

Accordingly, redox properties of dibenzoylmethane were investigated on glassy carbon electrodes in acetonitrile and in 1-propanol with cyclic voltammetry, and showed a diffusion-controlled process. In the anodic window, an oxidation peak appeared at around 1.9 V in both solvents. Cycling repeatedly between 0 and 2 V, the reproducibility of this peak was acceptable, but when extending the window to higher potentials, the electrode deactivated, obviously due to electrode material. The addition of the investigated tetrakis(3,5-dicarboxyphenoxy) cavitand did not significantly change the voltammograms. Further electrochemical experiments showed that the coexistence of water in acetonitrile and 1-propanol drastically reduces the solubility of dibenzoylmethane. Moreover, very rapid electrode deactivation occurred and this fact made the use of electrochemical methods complicated. Considering that both the cavitand and dibenzoylmethane are soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide, the interaction of these species was investigated and formation of stable complexes was detected. This observation was verified with fluorescence quenching studies. The mixture of water and dimethyl sulphoxide also dramatically improved the solubility of the cavitand–dibenzoylmethane complex at high excess of water. The addition of cavitand improved the solubility of dibenzoylmethane, a property which supports the application of dibenzoylmethane in therapy.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1420-3049} } @article{MTMT:34050086, title = {Conductivity mapping of topographically complex surfaces using contact-mode carbon fibre in potentiometric SECM}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34050086}, author = {Sowad, R.S.R.B. and Kiss, László and Kiss, András}, doi = {10.1016/j.elecom.2023.107515}, journal-iso = {ELECTROCHEM COMMUN}, journal = {ELECTROCHEMISTRY COMMUNICATIONS}, volume = {152}, unique-id = {34050086}, issn = {1388-2481}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1873-1902} } @article{MTMT:32843480, title = {A new sensor for direct potentiometric determination of thiabendazole in fruit peels using the Gran method}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/32843480}, author = {Budetić, Mateja and Samardžić, Mirela and Bubnjar, Karlo and Dandić, Andrea and Živković, Pavo and Széchenyi, Aleksandar and Kiss, László}, doi = {10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.133290}, journal-iso = {FOOD CHEM}, journal = {FOOD CHEMISTRY}, volume = {392}, unique-id = {32843480}, issn = {0308-8146}, year = {2022}, eissn = {1873-7072}, orcid-numbers = {Széchenyi, Aleksandar/0000-0001-9207-2551} } @article{MTMT:33080537, title = {Anodic Polymerization of Phenylphenols in Methyl Isobutyl Ketone and Mesityl Oxide: Incorporation of a Cavitand into the Layers Formed for Sensing Phenols in Organic Media}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33080537}, author = {Kiss, László and Nagymihaly, Zoltan and Szabó, Péter and Kollár, László and Kunsági-Máté, Sándor}, doi = {10.3390/molecules27175366}, journal-iso = {MOLECULES}, journal = {MOLECULES}, volume = {27}, unique-id = {33080537}, issn = {1420-3049}, abstract = {The electropolymerization of three phenylphenol isomers was studied in methyl isobutyl ketone and mesityl oxide, and the remarkable differences highlighted the importance of the carbon–carbon double bond in mesityl oxide.

The obvious difference between the polymers formed from the two solvents was recognized via voltammetric signal enhancement of 4-methoxyphenol and 4-chlorophenol, and it was only observed in the case of mesityl oxide. The experiments highlighted that incorporation of a cavitand with biphenyl groups on the upper rim of the polymers of phenylphenols improved the results to a small extent. The cavitand was, itself, electroactive without any fouling effect. As 2-phenylphenol is by far the cheapest of the three isomers, a cavitand was incorporated into its polymer, which was exploited to solve analytical problems while mesityl oxide was used as solvent. Useful quantifications were achieved in organic solvents; however, it failed under aqueous conditions due to the high hydrophobicity of the deposit.
