Abstract:
A 12-metal Cd(II)-Yb(III) nanoring (1) with a diameter of 2.7 nm was constructed from a new flexible octadentate Schiff base ligand. It displays an excitation wavelength-dependent luminescence response to rhein (RH), which is described by I520nm/I385nm = A*[RH]2 + B*[RH] + C. It can be used to rapidly detect RH concentrations in CH3CN and fetal calf serum with high selectivity and sensitivity. The response times to RH are about 5 s, and the limits of detection are from 5.97 to 9.92 μM.
