Ratiometric detection of mercury ions in water: accelerated response kinetics of azochromophores having ethynyl ligand tethers

Abstract

The metal-induced intramolecular cyclization reaction of an azodye was exploited for the colorimetric detection of mercury ions in water. The molecular probe 3 responds selectively to nM-level Hg(II) ions in neutral aqueous solutions.
