Rapid, selective, and sensitive fluorometric detection of cyanide anions in aqueous media by cyanine dyes with indolium–coumarin linkages

Abstract

Cyanine dyes with indolium–coumarin linkages exhibit selective fluorescence enhancement for cyanide anions (CN) via the nucleophilic interaction of CN with their indolium carbon atoms. This facilitates rapid (detection time: 1 min) and sensitive (detection limit: 0.4 μM) sensing of CN in aqueous media.
