Abstract
Phenazines exhibit intriguing vibration-induced emission (VIE) owing to the fast intrinsic vibration of benzo[a,c]phenazine moiety. For the first time, a phenazine-based ratiometric fluorescent probe DBPST is developed for recognizing Hg2+ via restriction of VIE. Upon binding with Hg2+ , DBPST demonstrates two well-resolved emission peaks (over 130 nm) with a wide tuning color and affords a large signal-to-background ratio.
