Popis: A novel long-wavelength turn-on fluorescent chemosensor CS based on pyrene was synthesized to detect Hg2+. In the presence of other metal ions, CS could effectively recognize Hg2+ and produce the turn-on fluorescent emission at 607 nm. Also, the absorption spectrum exhibited red-shift. Meanwhile, the change of the solution color from yellow to orange was directly observed by the naked eye. The interaction between CS and Hg2+ was confirmed by the Job’s plot, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, and density functional theory calculations. It was found that the fluorescence of CS could be reversible when I– was added into the solution of CS and Hg2+. CS illustrated high selectivity and good sensitivity for Hg2+ with the limit of detection of 36 nm. Moreover, CS could be utilized as test strips and silica gel plates to identify Hg2+.
