▎ 摘  要

Nanocomposites consisting of cobalt mono carboxyphenoxy phthalocyanine (CoMCPhPc) either covalently linked to graphene oxide nanosheets (GONS), sulphur doped graphene oxide nanosheets (SDGONS), nitrogen doped graphene oxide nanosheets (NDGONS) or sulphur/nitrogen co-doped graphene oxide nanosheets (SNDGONS) or sequentially added were used to modify glassy carbon electrode. The modified electrodes were characterised using several techniques: voltammetry, X-ray photon spectroscopy and scanning electron spectroscopy before testing their activity on the detection of hydrogen peroxide at pH 7. The presence of SNDGONS had a significant improvement on the currents as compared to CoMCPhPc modification alone in both sequentially added or covalently linked to MPcs. CoMCPhPc-SNDGONS(seq)-GCE and CoMCPhPc-SDGONS(linked)-GCE resulted in impressive limits of detection and catalytic rate constant values of 1.58 nM and 5.44 nM, 3.07 x 10(5) M-1 s(-1) and 3.01 x 10(3) M-1 s(-1) respectively. Gibbs energy value was determined to be -2122 kJ mol(-1) for CoMCPhPc-SNDGONS(linked)-GCE indicative of a facile spontaneous electroreduction reaction on the surface of this electrode.
