The determination of hydrogen peroxide at concentrations higher than those normally covered in polarography was studied with various electrodes. The diffusion current was found to increase linearly with the peroxide concentration up to 0.15% with the dropping mercury electrode and up to nearly 1% with a fixed platinum microelectrode. Under these conditions the limiting current was about 10 times greater than that usually observed. Although the solutions were supersaturated with oxygen, traces of strychnine sulphate were sufficient to suppress all maxima.

Abstract Electrochemical reduction of zopiclone at different pHs and concentrations was studied by polarography and cyclic voltametry. Both techniques revealed a reduction process with weak adsorption of both zopiclone and its reduction derivative. Zopiclone exhibited 2 differential pulse polarographic peaks at the dropping mercury electrode. The first peak was used to develop a differential pulse polarographic analytical procedure for determining the drug in pharmaceutical dosage forms. Reproducibility and recovery coefficients of variation were 1.6 and 2.2%, respectively. Analysis of commercial zopiclone tablets showed uniformity in zopiclone content. The method is simple and rapid because separation of excipients is unnecessary.

The effect of the adsorption of tetraethylammonium (TEA) cations, which present both ionic and organic characteristics, on the reduction of Cd(II) ions have been studied from dc and ac measurements at the dropping mercury electrode. The resistance to the charge transfer (Rct) and Warburg coefficient (σ) parameters have been determined through impedance measurements. Thus, the global velocity constant has been obtained. The reduction process of Cd(II) in perchloric media is reversible and is affected by the adsorption of TEA cations, especially at high TEA concentrations. Values of E1/2, half wave potential, and DO, diffusion coefficient, obtained from both dc and ac measurements agree. The velocity constants show a decrease as TEA concentration increases, with values ranging from 0.6 to 0.01 cm·s−1. The inhibitory effect of TEA adsorption on the electrode process and the relationship between electrode coverage, θ, and velocity constants, K, using several isotherm equations, have been discussed. The best fit was obtained with the equation K = 0K(1 − θ)a with an a value close to three, indicating a blocking effect and electrostatic repulsion due to TEA.
