SURFACE MODIFICATION WITH MACROCYCLE-CONTAINING REDOX-ACTIVE POLYMERS - TOWARDS THE DESIGN OF NOVEL SPECTROELECTROCHEMICAL GROUP IA IIA METAL CATION SENSORS

The application of transition metal-polypyridyl complexes to chemical sensor technology is demonstrated. Using fluorescence emission spectroscopy the recognition of Na+ and Mg2+ metal cations by vinyl linked benzo- and aza- crown ether-bipyridyl ruthenium(II) complexes is shown. Such complexes can b...
