Probing the Electric Double-Layer Capacitance to Understand the Reaction Environment in Conditions of Electrochemical Amination of Acetone.

ABSTRACT: To elucidate interfacial dynamics during electrocatalytic reactions, it is crucial to understand the adsorption behavior of organic molecules on catalytic electrodes within the electric double layer (EDL). However, the EDL structure in aqueous environments remains intricate when it comes to the electrochemical amination of acetone, using methylamine as a nitrogen source. Specifically, the interactions of acetone and methylamine with the copper electrode in water remain unclear, posing challenges in the prediction and optimization of reaction outcomes. In this study, initial investigations employed impedance spectroscopy at the potential of zero charge to explore the surface preconfiguration. Here, the capacitance of the EDL was utilized as a primary descriptor to analyze the adsorption ten
