A highly efficient dinuclear Cu(ii) chemosensor for colorimetric and fluorescent detection of cyanide in water

Abstract

A novel dinuclear copper chemosensor selectively binds cyanide over a wide range of inorganic anions, enabling it to detect cyanide in water at up to 0.02 ppm, which is 10 times lower than the EPA standard for drinking water.
