A novel electrochemical sensor for catechol was developed by electrodepositing HAuCl4 and cobalt hexacyanoferrate (CoHCF) on an ordered mesoporous SBA-15 decorated glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The CoHCF/Au/SBA-15 film was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and impedance spectra. A mesoporous SBA-15 was used as a platform that enlarged the surface area of the working electrode. The CoHCF/ Au/SBA-15 modified electrode showed good electrocatalytic activity to catechol and the electrocatalytic response was measured using cyclic voltammetry and Amperometric i-t curve. The electrochemical performance of the sensor for catechol was further enhanced due to the deposition of Au on the electrode surface. Under the optimal conditions, the sensor showed a linear range from 3.0 × 10-7M to 5.1 × 10-5M of catechol, with a detection limit of 50 nM (S/N=3). Good reproducibility, stability and good selectivity in the presence of numerous organic phenolics made the CoHCF/ Au/SBA-15 modified electrodes applicable to the determination of catechol in the various water samples.
