Hexacyanoferrate modification of gold electrode has been achieved by i
mmobilizing the species in a self-assembled monolayer of 3,3'-thiodipr
opionic acid anchored to the gold surface. The surface coverage of hex
acyanoferrate is estimated from the voltammetric data point to be abou
t one monolayer, and the modified electrode exhibits excellent surface
redox behavior. Further, it shows good electrocatalytic influence on
the oxidation of hydrazine and ascorbic acid.
