In the present research, the direct electrochemical oxidation of hydrazine in the presence of bisphenol A was investigated at a copper oxide nanoparticles ionic liquid carbon paste electrode (CuO NPs/IL/CPE). The combination of the good conductive 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate and CuO nanoparticles resulted in an electrode with attractive properties for the determination of hydrazine in the presence of bisphenol A. The linear dynamic ranges were obtained in the ranges of 0.05–150 and 0.2–175 µM with the detection limits (3sb/m) 0.03 and 0.1 µM for HY and BPA, respectively. High stability, sensitivity, selectivity and reproducibility, fast response, the ease of preparation, and surface renewal made the sensor well suitable for the determination of hydrazine in the presence of bisphenol A, which are important pollutants in the environment. Finally, this new sensor was used for determination of HY and BPA in some water samples such as river water and wastewater.
