Highly selective fluorescent and colorimetric chemosensor for detection of Hg2+ion in aqueous media.
A highly efficient and selective fluorescent and colorimetric chemosensor based on naphthothiazole skeleton was synthesized and its colorimetric and fluorescent properties were investigated. The sensor displays a rapid and highly selective colorimetric and fluorescence response toward Hg2+without interference with other metal ions in CH3CN/H2O mixture (50/50, v/v). The detection limit for the fluorescent chemosensor S1 toward Hg2+was 3.42×10-8M.
