Sažetak
Chlorogenic acids (CGAs) are one of the groups of polyphenolic compounds widely distributed in different plant materials. Chemically, CGAs are family of different esters formed between (-)- quinic acid and certain trans-cinnamic acids, most commonly caffeic, ferulic and p-coumaric acids. In this study the electrochemical properties one of the most abundant CGAs in plants, namely 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA) was studied by square-wave voltammetry (SWV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The electrochemical properties of 5-CQA were compared with the electrochemical properties of caffeic acid (CFA), main structural moiety of 5-CQA. The study reveals that electrochemical properties of 5-CQA strongly depends on its chemical structure and electronic properties, particularly on electron-donating effect of −OH and −CH=CH− groups, and a strong electron- withdrawing effect of ester (−COOR) group in the chemical structure of 5-CQA molecule. SWV and DPV measurements show that electrochemical oxidation/reduction of 5-CQA at a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) is reversible, pH-dependent, two electron-two proton process. The oxidation/reduction processes occurred on the catechol moiety (ortho-dihydroxyl groups) in the structure of 5-CQA molecule. The oxidation product(s) relatively strongly adsorb on the GCE surface, especially at higher concentration of 5-CQA. It was observed that the anodic peak current of 5-CQA show maximum in solution of pH 7, due to the maximum concentration of 5-CQA- anion at this pH value. The electrode reaction proceeded in the solution of 5-CQA is diffusion controlled process. The anodic peak current of 5-CQA show linear relationship with the concentration in the concentration range 5-50 µmol L-1, with low limit of detection (LOD) of 7.7·10-7 mol L-1 for SWV and 1.2·10-6 mol L-1 for DPV measurements. SWV and DPV of coffee samples have shown that electrochemical properties of water coffee extracts were very similar to that of investigated 5-CQA. Therefore, SWV and DPV can be used as very sensitive and selective methods for determination of CQAs content (and CGAs content) in different coffee samples.
