Graphene Oxide-terpyridine Conjugate: A Highly Selective Colorimetric and Sensitive Fluorescence Nano-chemosensor for Fe2+ in Aqueous Media

Authors

Abstract:

A graphene oxide-terpyridine conjugate (GOTC) based colorimetric and fluorescent nano-chemosensor was synthesized. It showed high selectivity and sensitivity for Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions in neutral aqueous solution over other metal ions such as Li+, Na+, Ba2+, Ca2+, Al3+, Cd2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Hg2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Zn2+, Cr3+ and Ag+. In absorption spectra, upon addition of Fe2+ or Fe3+, the sensor displayed a peak at 568 nm, by changing the color of the solution from light pink for GOTC to light magenta and deep magenta for Fe3+ and Fe2+, respectively. Also, the fluorescence studies revealed that, Fe2+, Fe3+ and Co2+ quench the emission of GOTC at 473 nm, while other metal ions do not quench the fluorescence of GOTC in solution. Colorimetric and fluorescence techniques could be used for detection of Fe2+ ion concentration at least about 6-10 μM in water solution. The sensing on test paper was also investigated for the naked-eye detection of Fe2+.

A simple but highly sensitive and selective colorimetric and fluorescent probe for Cu2+ in aqueous media.

In this paper, CN-DPA was prepared as an effective colorimetric and fluorescent probe for copper ions (Cu(2+)) in aqueous solution. It exhibits good sensitivity and selectivity for Cu(2+) over other metal ions both in aqueous solution and on a simple colorimetric paper-made test kit. Upon addition of Cu(2+), a remarkable color change from purple to colorless was easily observed by the naked eye...

A highly selective and sensitive probe for colorimetric and fluorogenic detection of Cd2+ in aqueous media.

A new rhodamine-quinoline based dyad has been synthesized. It shows a highly selective response to Cd(2+) in the presence of other competing metal ions in aqueous media (pH = 7.1). The detection limit of the sensor is in the 10(-7) M level.

A reusable nanofibrous film chemosensor for highly selective and sensitive optical signaling of Cu2+ in aqueous media.

A novel surface modification strategy for an electrospun nanofibrous film was reported, allowing detection and removal of copper ions in the aqueous solution. This reusable dual fluorescent-colorimetric nanofibrous film can be utilized conveniently to achieve real-time naked-eye sensing in aqueous medium just like using a test paper.

A highly sensitive and selective fluorescent chemosensor for Pb2+ ions in an aqueous solution.

A new fluorescent sensor based on the BODIPY fluorophore and the polyamide receptor for Pb(2+) was designed and synthesized. The sensor is highly selective for Pb(2+) over relevant competing metal ions, and sensitive to ppb levels of Pb(2+). It features the most sensitive probe to date for Pb(2+) ions in water.

Highly sensitive and selective fluorescent chemosensor for Ni(2+) based on a new poly(arylene ether) with terpyridine substituent groups.

A new poly(arylene ether) (PAET) with terpyridine substituent groups has been synthesized which shows a turn-off fluorescent response in the presence of Ni(2+) over other cations and allows discrimination of these cations from each other on the basis of the extent of quenching.
