(C70)2-p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene complex films on electrodes catalyze the reduction of nitrite ions.
(C70)(2)-p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene complex films on GC electrode surface showed two couples of redox reactions in mixed solvent of (1:1, v:v) acetonitrile and water containing tetra-butylammonium perchlorate. The electrocatalytic reduction for nitrite by these films was observed, indicating that (C70)(2)-p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene is capable of mediating the electron transfer to nitrite.
