Abstract
Abstract: The measurements of double-layer differential capacitance, zero charge potential, and surface tension at that potential allowed us to examine the adsorption properties of adenine on the mercury surface from the neat buffer solution, i.e., the acetate buffer at pH 5 and pH 6. The systems obtained at such pH values were close to physiological fluids in their characteristics. The adsorption energy and interaction constants were determined using Frumkin isotherm and virial isotherm. It was shown that the adenine molecule is adsorbed on the mercury electrode with its negative pole against the electrode surface. Using the cyclic voltammetry technique and measuring Faraday impedance, an increasing effect of adenine on the kinetics of zinc ion electroreduction was found. In both buffer solutions, the neutral adenine molecules can form on the surface of the working electrode, an unstable active complex with depolarizer ions, facilitating electron exchange.
期刊介绍：
"Monatshefte für Chemie/Chemical Monthly" was originally conceived as an Austrian journal of chemistry. It has evolved into an international journal covering all branches of chemistry. Featuring the most recent advances in research in analytical chemistry, biochemistry, inorganic, medicinal, organic, physical, structural, and theoretical chemistry, Chemical Monthly publishes refereed original papers and a section entitled "Short Communications". Reviews, symposia in print, and issues devoted to special fields will also be considered.
