Key Points

The study aims to develop a rapid and effective fluorescent probe for detecting mercury(II) ions in various systems.
Developed a fluorescent chemodosimeter based on phenylboronic acid.
Utilized irreversible substitution reaction with Hg²⁺ ions.
Tested the probe in aqueous and biological environments.
The probe displayed ultrafast detection of Hg²⁺ ions.
Demonstrated high selectivity for mercury ions over other metal ions.
Enabled detection in both aqueous and biological systems effectively.

Implication

A new chemodosimeter detects mercury ions in aqueous and biological systems, indicating its potential for environmental monitoring.

Abstract

A new reaction-based fluorescent chemodosimeter for Hg²⁺ ions was developed based on the irreversible substitution reaction between Hg²⁺ and a phenylboronic acid moiety. The probe exhibits a rapid and highly...
