Abstract
For the determination of heterogeneous charge transfer rate constants k deg rees(ct), the working curve data from peak-to-peak splitting referring to s urface and thin layer voltammetry given by Laviron were supplemented by an explicit equation, where the electron number n is replaced by the "surface redox valency" n'. The pH dependent peak potentials of Pyocyanine and Coele stin Blue were measured at decreasing surface concentrations and extrapolat ed to zero coverage. The plateau behaviour of the catalytical steady-state currents with increasing numbers of multilayers of beta-Naphthoyl Nile Blue at graphite electrodes immersed in NADH solution suggest good plane-to-pla ne electronic coupling.
