Title: Colorimetric detection of cyanide with phenyl thiourea derivatives. Author: Lin YS, Zheng JX, Tsui YK, Yen YP. Journal: Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc; 2011 Sep; 79(5):1552-8. PubMed ID: 21684191. Abstract: Three structurally simple thiourea derivatives 1-3 were prepared, and their chromogenic behaviors toward various anions were investigated in aqueous solution. Among them 1 showed good sensitivity and selectivity for cyanide ion and also can distinguish it from other anions by different color changes. Besides that, the receptor 1 has a sensitive detection limit (1.27 μM) for cyanide ion accordingly it can be used as a colorimetric sensor for the determination of cyanide ion. The use of the test strip of sensor 1 to detect cyanide ion was also reported.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
