Mercury -ferron complex

There are numerous analytically oriented studies developed upon adsorption coupled electrode reactions (2.144) and (2.146), which are summarized in the Sect. 3.1. For the purpose of verification of the theory, electrode mechanisms including reductions of a series of metallic ions in the presence of anion-induced adsorption [110], as well as electrode mechanisms at a mercury electrode of methylene blue [92], azobenzene [79], midazolam [115], berberine [111], jatrorubine [121], Cn(lI)-sulfoxine and ferron complexes [122], Cd(II)- and Cu(II)-8-hydoxy-qninoline... 

Figure 3.12 shows the forward and backward components of square-wave voltam-mograms of mercury(ll)-ferron complex adsorbed on the surface of static mercuiy drop electrode [208]. The ratio of the current and the corresponding SW frequency is reported. At pH 3.5 the electrode reaction involves the direct transfer of two electrons, whereas at pH 5.8 only one electron is exchanged. The simulated responses are presented by symbols. The best fit was achieved by using the following standard rate constants and the transfer coefficients k. = 1550 50 s and a = 0.5 (at pH 3.5), and = 1900 400s and a = 0.55 (at pH 5.8) [208].
