Oxidation of capsaicin in acetonitrile in dry and wet conditions

An electrochemical study of the phenol capsaicin (CAPH), the active ingredient in chilli pepper, was performed in dried and wet acetonitrile on a glassy carbon electrode. Under dried conditions, two oxidation peaks at ca. 0.7 vs. (Fc/Fc+)/V (labelled E1) and 1.0 vs. (Fc/Fc+)/V (labelled E2) and two...
