Abstract

Oscillating chemical reactions are complex systems, involving a large number of chemical species. In oscillating chemical reaction, some species, usually a reaction intermediate, exhibit fluctuation in its concentration. In this report, visible oscillating chemiluminescence produced by the addition of luminol (3-aminophthalhydrazide) to the oscillating system of H2O2=KSCN=CuSO4=TMAOH was investigated using spectrofluorimetry method. The effects of ingredient concentration of the oscillating system and complexing agents like citric acid and cysteine on the behavior of the oscillating system were investigated. Moreover, the influence of nonaqueous solvents such as ethanol and ethylene glycol has been studied.
