Abstract
Three known isostructural lanthanide coordination polymers (Ln CP) were synthesized and their chemical and physical properties were characterized using SCXRD, XRPD, FTIR, SEM-EDS, TGA, CHN elemental analysis and acid digestion proton NMR spectroscopy. The materials were coated on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) using simple drop cast method and their electrochemical activities for detection of dopamine were carried out using cyclovoltammetry (CV), square wave voltammetry (SWV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The fabricated La, Nd and Ce CPs/GCE exhibited good electrochemical activities for selective detection of dopamine than the bare GCE with limit of detection 0.253, 0.241 and 0.159 µM, respectively. The Ln CP/GCE exhibited small charge transfer resistance (Rct) than the bare GCE when measured using EIS. The calculated Rct values for the electrodes were La CP/GCE (ca. 177 Ω) < Ce and Nd CPs/GCE (ca. 233 Ω) < bare GCE (ca. 467 Ω). Furthermore, Ln CP/GCE showed excellent sensitivity for the detection of dopamine. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]
