Abstract

Lanthanides are common in catalysis and advanced technologies, but difficult to assess voltammetrically. Voltammetry for seven lanthanide(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate complexes Ln(OTf)3 is enabled at Nafion® modified platinum electrodes in acetonitrile. Voltammetric morphologies for La3+, Pr3+, Nd3+, Sm3+, Gd3+, Dy3+, and Yb3+ trifluoromethanesulfonate (triflate) complexes exhibit reduction waves between 0.2 to 0.1 V and -0.7 to -0.8 V vs NHE with coupled chemical processes.
