Abstract
The rapid detection of Ni ions has important research and application value. This paper presents a novel specific turn-off fluorescence probe PCTMP-FS for detecting Ni2+ ions. The carbazole-based compound PCTMP is first synthesized via a two-step reaction. PCTMP-FS comprises PCTMP dispersed into a DMSO-H2O (fw=30% v/v) mixed solvent. The probe demonstrates prominent selectivity and anti-interference abilities for detecting Ni2+ with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.233μM. The probe exhibits good applicability over a wide range of acidities. The detecting mechanism of the probe is due to the complex formed by PCTMP and Ni2+ (2:1), which destroys intramolecular charge transfer in the compound. The probe has good repeatability and demonstrates excellent stability and sensitivity for the detection of Ni2+ in real water samples.
