We propose a new strategy for constructing a mediator-type biosensor as a Bio-MicroElectroMechanical Systems (BioMEMS) application. A vinylferrocene plasma-polymerized film (PPF) was deposited directly onto the surface of an electrode under dry conditions. The resulting redox film was extremely thin

We immobilized hydroquinone through a spacer to polymer grafted on carbon black and achieved a high-surface-area biofuel cell electrode. Quinone compounds are well-known to transfer electrons in the respiratory chain and have been considered prospective mediators in biofuel cells because

Poly(vinylferrocene) (pVFc) homopolymer was synthesized by free radical polymerization, along with a series of pVFc-based copolymers containing either styrene, vinylanthracene or methylmethacrylate. This report details the electrochemical experiments conducted to examine the stability of the various pVFc based polymers, which

Highly enantioselective iron-catalyzed C-H alkylations by inner-sphere C-H activation were accomplished with ample scope. High levels of enantiocontrol proved viable through a novel ligand design that exploits a remote meta-substitution on N-heterocyclic carbenes within a facile ligand-to-ligand H-transfer C-H cleavage.
