The electropolymerization of the synthesized metal complexes were achieved on the graphite electrode. The electropolymerization process was conducted by cyclic voltammetry (CV) in a 0.15 M LiClO4/Acetonitrile as supporting electrolyte medium. Characterization of the polymer coated electrodes were carried out by CV, SEM, EDX and UV-Vis techniques. The electrocatalytic activities of graphite electrodes modified with Schiff-base metal complex were investigated in the determination of compounds such as Dopamine (DA), Catechol (CC), Cysteine (Cys) and Uric Acid (UA). These studies showed that the salen-type Schiff base-Ni(II)-modified graphite electrode gave the best result in the determination of catechol and dopamine. Square wave voltammetry showed a linear response in the range of 0.09-0.35 mu M and 0.22-0.58 mu M with LoD of 0.03 mu M and 0.06 mu M for CC and DA, respectively.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSalen-type Schiff baseMetal complexesGrafit electrodeElectropolymerizationElectrocatalytic studiesSynthesis of salen-type Schiff base metal complexes, electropolymerization on graphite electrode surface and investigation of electrocatalytic effectsArticle808657410.1016/j.jelechem.2017.11.0582-s2.0-85035785736Q1WOS:000423650000010Q1
