摘要:
Mercury ions (Hg(2+)), as one of heavy transition metals (HTM), is a highly toxic metal that is hazardous to human health. Here an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorescent probe is designed for the highly sensitive and selective detection of Hg(2+). The probe is engineered with a tetraphenylethene (TPE) derivative as the fluorophore and thiopropionic acid as the site of recognition for Hg(2+). Due to the different solubilities of the probe AIE-COOH and its corresponding product after reaction with Hg(2+). The probe demonstrates a maximum ...
