Bis[squaramido]ferrocenes as electrochemical sulfate receptors

Abstract

1,1′-Bis[squaramido]ferrocenes (FcSq2) are introduced as electrochemically active scaffolds for sulfate recognition. FcSq2 display high sulfate-binding affinity and selectivity in aqueous DMSO mixtures. Among tested anions, sulfate elicits a unique electrochemical response in FcSq2, enabling selective detection.
