Cathodic Electrochemiluminescence of Tin(II)

摘要

A specific feature of the state-of-the-art electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is that three-quarters of works in this field have addressed the use of the only activator, Ru(bpy)_3~(2+) , where bpy is 2,2'-dipyridyl. The high cost of ruthenium complexes prevents the wide application of the method. In this paper, the cathodic ECL of Sn(II) has been described and perspectives for application of this available activator in ECL analysis have been considered.
