Abstract

The transfer mechanism of an amphoteric rhodamine, sulforhodamine 101 (SR101), across the polarized water/1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) interface was investigated using cyclic voltammetry, differential voltfluorometry and potential-modulated fluorescence (PMF) spectroscopy. The voltammetric response for the ion transfer of SR101 monoanion from water to DCE was observed as the diffusion-controlled transfer process. An unusual voltammetric response was found at 0.15 V more negative than the formal transfer potential of SR101− \({\left( {\Delta ^{{\text{W}}}_{{\text{O}}} \phi ^\circ \prime } \right)}\) in the cyclic voltammogram and voltfluorogram. The frequency dependence of the PMF responses confirmed the presence of the adsorption processes at negative potentials. In addition, a further transient adsorption step was uncovered at \(\Delta ^{{\text{W}}}_{{\text{O}}} \phi ^\circ \prime .\)The interfacial mechanism of SR101 is discussed by comparing the results obtained from each technique.
