Fw. Wu et al., A model for the kinetics of chemiluminescence in the Ru(bipy)(3)(2+)/Ru(phen)(3)(2+)-C2O42--Ce-IV system, ACT CHIM S, 57(11), 1999, pp. 1213-1218
A model for the kinetics of chemiluminescence in the Ru(bipy)(3)(2+)/Ru(phe
n)(3)(2+) - C2O42-- Ce-IV system has been established according to the mech
anism of the reactions. It was used not only to describe the kinetics of ch
emiluminescence, but also to calculate the rate constants for rise (r) and
decay (f) of the time - dependent chemiluminescence profile, the maximal in
tensity (I-max) and the time required to reach maximal intensity (t(max)).
The maximal intensity and the area under the I - t curve can be used for th
e quantitative analysis.
