Electropolymerization of trans-[RuCl2(vpy)4] complex—EQCM and Raman studies

Modified glassy carbon electrode with AuNPs using cis-[RuCl(dppb)(bipy)(4-vpy)]+ as crossed linking agent

“…An adsorption wave process of the 4-vpy occurs at À1.2 V, and reduction waves processes at À1.6 and À2.1 V. Similar potential related to adsorption and reduction processes of vinyl group were observed by Franco and coworkers [48] in the electropolymerization of trans-[RuCl 2 (4-vpy) 4 ] on Au, Pt and glassy carbon electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry of [RuCl 2 (4-vpy) 4 ] shows the vinyl reduction waves at the À1.5 and À2.45 V range and adsorption wave around À0.8 V. Fig.…”

From Ruthenium Complexes to Novel Functional Nanocomposites: Development and Perspectives

“…[36] Studies of cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical crystal microbalance quartz and Raman spectroscopy revealed the results of electropolymerization of the complex trans-[RuCl2(vpy)4] in Au and Pt electrodes in particular the effects of the polymerization potential on the characteristics of the film formed, and especially the understanding of the key processes involved in electropolymerization. [37] Much of the recent work on polymer substrates has been focused on the structure of the polymeric matrix for subsequent complex formation with a metal ion. Antony et al studied the synthesis and catalytic properties of poly-(styrene-divinylbenzene) supported by ruthenium (III complexes.…”

Optical and Luminescence Properties and Applications of Metal Complex‐Based Polymers

“…In a later paper, they reported a vinyl thiophenesubstituted complex 9, which, surprisingly, oxidatively electropolymerized through the vinyl groups rather than the thiophene groups [32]. Crayston and coworkers have shown that vinylpyridine complex 10 may be electropolymerized efficiently in DMSO to yield an orange, luminescent film [33,34]. The method is much more controllable than that used in the traditional electropolymerization method for vinylbipyridine [35] and vinylterpyridine complexes [36].…”
