Design of a sensing platform with dual performance for detection of hydrogen peroxide and Fe3+ based on a new fluorescent oligo N-phenylpyrrole derivative
A new oligo N-phenylpyrrole (ONPP) derivative synthesized by using a simple method. Air is used for the oxidation of pyrrole in the presence of Cu(II) as a catalyst. The ONPP showed fluorescence and selectively quenched by trace amount of Fe3+ ions. H2O2 determined based on oxidative generation of Fe3+ in the presence of Fe2+ ions.
