Abstract

The electrochemical reduction of carbamazepine in acetonitrile (ACN) and dimethylformamide (DMF) using a glassy carbon electrode and microelectrodes has been studied. The reduction process is consistent with an Electrochemical-Chemical mechanism (EC) involving a two electron transfer followed by a first order reaction, as shown by the cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. Half-wave potential, number of electron transfer, diffusion coefficient and rate constant of the associated chemical reaction are reported. Detection limits are in DPV: LoD=0.92 and 0.76 μg mL-1 in ACN and DMF, respectively. Precision (%RSD) and recovery (%) values when pharmaceutical compounds (200mg carbamazepine tablets) and spiked plasma samples were tested ranged from 1.09 to 9.04% and % recoveries ranged from 96 to 104.1%.
