Abstract
Previous reports in which metal complexes have been attached to electrode surfaces coated with polymeric molecules have depended upon the formation of covalent or coordination bonds in the attachment procedure (1-4). Such schemes can be quite successful but depending, as they do, on rather specific surface chemistry, they are not applicable to as wide a variety of metal complexes as might be desirable. We have observed that coating graphite electrodes with polymers bearing charged ionic groups produces surfaces which strongly bind multiply-charged metal complexes bearing charges opposite to that on the attached ionic polymer. By exploiting this observation it is entirely possible that virtually any desired metal ion can be attached in large quantities to electrode surfaces by coordinating the metal ion with ligands that produce a multiply-charged complex ion.
