An electrochemical method for the detection of triacetone triperoxide (TATP) is proposed and examined. In this method, TATP solutions were treated with 1.08 MHCl for 10 min releasing H2O2 and/or hydroperoxides. Subsequently, these peroxides undergo an electrocatalytic reduction through the Fe(II/III)ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) complex at a glassy carbon electrode. Cyclic voltammetric results indicate that no redox reaction was observed between Fe(II)EDTA and TATP. Acid treated TATP yielded voltammograms indicative of electrocatalysis of ROOH/HOOH reduction via Fe(II/III)EDTA redox cycling. Chronoamperometric results yielded a detection limit of 0.89 mu M for TATP and a sensitivity of 0.025 mA mM(-1). The influence of pH and 02 interference on the analytical signal is briefly discussed.
