Novel Chemodosimeter for the Detection of Cyanide Ion
Abstract
Formation of the ensemble between the anthracene base dinuclear Cu (II) complexes (Cu2L) with pyrogallol red (PGR) were studied, with the aim to exploit the determination of cyanide (CN-). The experiments were carried out in an aqueous solution of 80/20 (%v/v) CH3CN/H2O in the presence of 10 mM HEPES buffer pH 7.4. It was found this ensemble could sense CN- selectively by changing the blue color of ensemble to colorless. The sensing process is based on the nucleophilic addition of CN- to bounded PGR in the ensemble structure.
