    Abstract:
    In this work, novel photoluminescent Ag nanoclusters (Ag NCs) with red emission are synthesized and successfully used for detecting iodide ion (I-). The dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) is used as the stabilizing agent and beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) is used as the auxiliary stabilizing agent. DHLA and β-CD are combined with Ag atoms by the formation of AgS bonds and hydrophobic interaction, respectively. Functionalization of β-CD endows good photoluminescent properties and solubility in water to the Ag NCs. The obtained DHLA and β-CD-protected Ag NCs (DHLA/β-CD-Ag NCs) are spherical and display a dispersed state. However, the DHLA/β-CD-Ag NCs are aggregated in the presence of I-, accompanied by the decrease in their fluorescence intensity. Because the integrity of β-CD cavities is retained on the surface of DHLA/β-CD-Ag NCs, which preserves their capability for I- host-guest recognition, the DHLA/β-CD-Ag NCs combine with I- through the formation of inclusion complexes. Based on this phenomenon, the prepared DHLA/β-CD-Ag NCs can be designed as a novel fluorescent probe for I- detection. The limit of detection (LOD) is calculated as 0.06 μM, indicating that it is an ideal probe for I- detection in practical applications.
