Kim, M. Kuppuswamy, R.F. Savinell] Benzene oxidation in sulfuric acid at a glassy carbon electrode was investigated using voltammetric, chronoamperometric, and spectroscopic methods. The results are compared with those at a Pt electrode. Benzene was observed to be oxidized to benzoquinone presumably by active oxygen that was adsorbed on the GC electrode in the oxygen evolution region. It is concluded that oxidation at glassy carbon can produce benzoquinone or quinone-like compounds from an aqueous benzene solution. The applied potential for benzene oxidation should be less than 2.1 V vs RHE in order to prevent glassy carbon electrode damage by oxidation during long operation.
