A carbon paste‐poly( o ‐phenylendiamine)‐modified electrode to be used as amperometric biosensor for 2,4,6‐trichlorophenol (TCP) is described. The enzyme chloroperoxidase (EC 1.11.1.10) from Caldariomyces fumago is immobilized through dispersion in a graphite paraffin oil carbon paste covered by an electrogenerated poly( o ‐phenylendiamine) (PPD) layer. The main enzymatic dehalogenation product, 2,6‐dichloro‐1,4‐benzoquinone (DCQ) is characterized by liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry and cyclic voltammetry. This product is electrochemically active and can be detected amperometrically at +150 mV vs. Ag|AgCl|KCl (3 M). The biosensor exhibits a response time of 4 min, a detection limit of 10 −7  M, and a dynamic linear range between 10 −7 and 10 −6  M. Selectivity as well as operating and storage stability were evaluated.
