A novel luminescent turn-on detection method for Hg(II) was developed. The method was based on the silver nanoparticle (AgNP)-mediated quenching of Ir(III) complex 1. The addition of Hg(II) ions causes the luminescence of complex 1 to be recovered due to the oxidation of AgNPs by Hg(II) ions to form Ag(I) and Ag/Hg amalgam. The luminescence intensity of 1 increased in accord with an increased Hg(II) concentration ranging from 0 nM to 180 nM, with the detection limit of 5 nM. This approach offers an innovative method for the quantification of Hg(II).
开发了一种用于检测 Hg(II) 的新型荧光开启检测方法。该方法基于银纳米粒子 (AgNP) 介导的铱 (III) 配合物 1 的荧光猝灭。加入 Hg(II) 离子后,由于 Hg(II) 离子将 AgNPs 氧化为 Ag(I) 和 Ag/Hg 汞齐,导致 1 的荧光恢复。1 的荧光强度随着 Hg(II)浓度从 0 nM 增加到 180 nM 而增加,检测限为 5 nM。该方法为 Hg(II) 的定量提供了一种创新的方法。
