PG - 436-444 LID - 10.1039/d2ay01887j [doi] AB - Chlorophenols are considered priority pollutants and are harmful to humans and the environment; consequently, sensitive, and selective detection of chlorophenols is very significant. In the present article, a glassy carbon electrode was modified by copper oxide nanoleaves, beta-cyclodextrin, and reduced graphene oxide through an electrostatic self-assembly method (CuO NLs-beta-CD-rGO-GCE) and successfully utilized for the selective and sensitive detection of 2-chlorophenol (2-CP) and 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP). The modified electrodes were characterized by using SEM, EDX, ATR-FTIR, CV, and EIS. The electrochemical behaviour of 2-CP and 2,4 DCP on different modified electrodes was investigated by cyclic voltammetry whereas differential pulse voltammetry was used for the quantitative determination of chlorophenols. Under the optimized conditions, the anodic peak current displayed a good linear relationship to concentration in the range of 5 to 50 muM for 2-CP and 5 to 30 muM for 2,4-DCP, with detection limits of 0.22 nM and 0.52 nM, respectively. Moreover the proposed sensor exhibited good reproducibility, high sensitivity, and long term stability. To further study the practical applicability of the newly developed sensor, the modified electrode was successfully used to determine 2-CP and 2,4-DCP in a water sample with good recovery.
