An easily prepared hypersensitive water-soluble fluorescent probe for mercury(ii) ions

Abstract

A hypersensitive water-soluble fluorescent probe, dansyl-L-tryptophan methyl ester (1), was easily prepared for the detection of Hg2+ with a significantly improved detection limit (5 nM vs. 500 nM) in buffered aqueous solution.
