Selective, sensitive and reversible "turn-on" fluorescent cyanide probes based on 2,2'-dipyridylaminoanthracene-Cu2+ ensembles

Chem Commun (Camb). 2012 Dec 7;48(94):11513-5. doi: 10.1039/c2cc36140j.

Abstract

2,2'-Dipyridylamine and anthracene units were linked to afford highly emissive compounds whose Cu(2+) ensembles were developed as effective fluorescence turn-on CN(-) probes.
