Abstract: In DMFsolvent, the series electrooxidation of bilirubin were investigated using cyclic voltammetry, the experimental results shown that a catalytic reaction existed in these processes.The second oxidation step of bilirubin(the process of biliverdin→bile purpurin)was greatly promoted by this catalytic reaction.The mechanism of the catalysis was also proposed.

Key words: Bilirubin, Bile-purpurin, Electrocatalytic oxidation
