We describe the influence of dissolved oxygen on the emission of Ru(bpy)(3)(2+) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) by electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) with tertiary amine as coreactant in aqueous solutions. The significance of the reactions between molecular oxygen and the ECL intermediate reducing radicals has been demonstrated for the first time. By varying the experimental conditions, the oxygen effect on different ECL routes of the Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)/tri-n-propylamine (TPrA) system was examined. When coreactant direct oxidation played a predominant role in producing ECL, the maximum emission intensity, especially that of the low-oxidation-potential (LOP) ECL, could change from O-2-insensitive to highly O-2-sensitive with decreasing TPrA concentration. This behavior can be interpreted as follows: A large excess of intermediate reducing radicals was produced at high [TPrA], and the dissolved oxygen within the ECL reaction layer was completely reduced by these radicals and exerted no quenching effect on the emission. At low [TPrA], however, coreactant oxidation generated a relatively small amount of reducing intermediates, and molecular oxygen acted as an interceptor, destroying the intermediates before they participated in the ECL pathways, which led to the obvious reduction of the emission intensity. In the latter case, the less efficient LOP ECL route was more remarkably affected. When ECL was generated primarily via the catalytic route at high [Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)], the reactions consuming the intermediate radicals by O-2 became insignificant, and he drop of emission intensity in the presence of oxygen could mainly be ascribed to the excited-state quenching. A similar oxygen effect was also observed for the Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)/triethylamine (TEA) system.
