A cationic iridium(III) complex with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties for highly selective detection of explosives.
A new cationic Ir(III) complex with AIE characteristics was designed and synthesized with the help of density functional theory calculations, which exhibits highly sensitive and selective detection of explosives (2,4,6-trinitrophenol, TNP).
