<strong>XII</strong> <strong>Iberian</strong> <strong>Meeting</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Electrochemistry</strong> & <strong>XVI</strong> <strong>Meeting</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Portuguese Electrochemical Society PE 16<br />

The interest in coordination chemistry <strong>of</strong> vanadium has increased because <strong>of</strong> its catalytic<br />

and medicinal importance [1-2]. The electrochemical behavior <strong>of</strong> three newly<br />

syn<strong>the</strong>sized Schiff base VO(IV) complexes with electron donating groups were<br />

investigated, in acetonitrile (An) in <strong>the</strong> presence <strong>of</strong> tetrabutylammonium perchlorate as<br />

supporting electrolyte at <strong>the</strong> surface <strong>of</strong> GC electrode by cyclic voltammetry and<br />

chronopotentiometry (Figure 1).<br />

For all <strong>the</strong> VO(IV) compounds, one reversible oxidation wave has been found and <strong>the</strong><br />

diffusion coefficients (D) were obtained. The effect <strong>of</strong> scan rate was evaluated.<br />

R = Me, X = H, Y = OMe<br />
