title: A highly efficient dinuclear Cu(II) chemosensor for colorimetric and fluorescent detection of cyanide in water.
abstract: A novel dinuclear copper chemosensor selectively binds cyanide over a wide range of inorganic anions, enabling it to detect cyanide in water up to 0.02 ppm which is 10 times lower than the EPA standard for drinking water.
