The recognition of the mercury(II) ion (Hg(2+)) is essential because of its extreme toxicity in the environment and food. Hence we reported a novel cysteine (Cys) complex of piperidine-calix[4]arene (L) as a convenient and effective dual-signal responsive switch for Hg(2+). This switch system exhibited excellent selectivity toward Hg(2+) by fluorescence (FL), (1)H NMR spectroscopy and the atomic force microscopy (AFM). More importantly, the Hg(2+)-responsive switch had an important and potential application by water contact angle (CA) on a functional micro-nano silicon surface, including intelligent microfluidic and laboratory-on-chip devices, controllable drug delivery, and self-cleaning surfaces.
汞(II)离子(Hg(2+))的识别至关重要,因为它在环境和食品中具有极高的毒性。因此,我们报道了一种新型的哌啶杯[4]芳烃(L)半胱氨酸(Cys)配合物,作为一种方便有效的双信号响应开关用于 Hg(2+)。该开关系统通过荧光(FL)、(1)H NMR 光谱和原子力显微镜(AFM)对 Hg(2+)表现出优异的选择性。更重要的是,Hg(2+)响应开关在功能微纳硅表面的水接触角(CA)方面具有重要的潜在应用,包括智能微流控和片上实验室器件、可控药物输送和自清洁表面。
