Selective mercury(ii) detection in aqueous solutions upon the absorption changes corresponding to the transition moments polarized along the short axis of an azobenzene chemosensor
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2020

A completely water soluble azobenzene chemosensor 1 for selective detection of Hg2+ was synthesized. Taking advantage of the absorption changes corresponding to the transition moments polarized along the short axis of an azobenzene, 1 showed characteristic UV-Vis signal changes in the band around 240 nm for Hg2+ in wide pH ranges, which also showed good tolerance to various metal ions and photoirradiation. Upon addition of Hg2+ into the solution of 1, a favored formation of trans-1 was observed, which is attributed to an intramolecular coordination of the PEG chain and Nβ to Hg2+ confirmed by a control experiment test. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2020.
