Application

Quinhydrone is a general reagent used in potentiometric titrations. It can also be used as a π-acceptor in the formation of charge-transfer complex of analytes for spectrophotometric analysis.

General description

Quinhydrone/methanol treatment for the measurement of carrier lifetime in crystalline silicon substrates has been reported. Surface passivation of silicon substrates by quinhydrone/ethanol treatment has been investigated.

The influence of a number of redox reagents on the charge state distribution in nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry was examined using cytochrome c and ubiquitin. The redox active species investigated were: 1,4-benzoquinone, quinhydrone, tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), hydroquinone, and ascorbic acid. The redox
