Dr. Oldacre Publishes Study on Electrochemical Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer
Dr. Amanda Oldacre, working with her post-doctoral advisor from Lehigh University, Dr. Elizabeth Young, recently published an article on the thermodynamics, kinetics, and mechanism for the electrochemical proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) of an anthracene-based azo dye. The article titled, “Electrochemical proton-coupled electron transfer of an anthracene-based azo dye,” was published in the journal RSC Advances. This study illustrates the rich PCET electrochemistry of azo-dyes and that the mechanism can be tuned based on the thermodynamics of the proton-transfer.
