A series of selective and sensitive fluorescent sensors based on a thiophen-2-yl-benzothiazole unit for Hg2+
Keyword(s):
Different types of fluorescent probes for Hg2+ based on the 5-thiophen-2-yl-benzothiazole derivatives (TBT, CTBT, DTBT and NTBT) were realized by changing the subsituents, including the fluorescence quenching probe, the fluorescence enhancement probe and the ratiometric fluorescent probe.
