摘要
Coordination between copper ions of varied valence, Cu2+ and Cu+, with glycine (Gly) was investigated by an electrochemistry method named zero current potentiometry. The copper wire (CW), connected in series between two clips of working and counter electrodes of a potentiostat, and a reference electrode were immersed into buffer solution. By applying a specific linear sweep potential Eapp on CW according to the redox characteristic of Cu2+/Cu and Cu+/Cu couples, Cu+ or Cu2+ were selectively electro-generated on the CW surface. When Gly existed in buffer solution, Cu+ or Cu2+ bonded with Gly through coordination reaction, resulting in the changing of the interfacial potential at the corresponding interface. The changing of the interfacial potential was tracked by measuring zero current potential (E-zcp) that corresponds to where circuit current I was equal to zero in the recorded I-Eapp curve. The thermodynamic constants of the complexation between Cu2+ or Cu+ with Gly were accordingly determined by the relationship of E-zcp with Gly concentration. The results showed that Cu2+ and Cu+ were produced on the CW surface respectively by applying different range of the linear sweep potential on CW in buffer solution. With Gly concentration increasing, the recorded I-E-app curves shifted negatively and zero current potential E-zcp showed linear relationship with -logc(Gly) in both cases. The slopes were coincident with the corresponding theoretical values (0.030 for Cu2+-Gly reaction and 0.059 for Cu+-Gly reaction). Through their linearity relationships, the stability constants log beta and binding ratios of complexes were calculated respectively. The obtained results showed that the proposed approach is not only simple and rapid, but also has advantages for studying the coordination equilibrium of metal ions with varied valences, especially the ions that are not stable in solution.
