    A study on the use of Bathophenanthroline as a fluorescence sensor for iron(II)
    (Institute of Chemistry Ceylon, 2019-05) Perera,P.P.P; De Costa,M D P; Senthilnithy,R
    Although Fe2+ is present as a trace element, it plays a vital role in living systems. Therefore measurement of trace amounts of Fe2+ is very important for many biological and ecological studies. Bathophenanthroline (BPhen) forms a stable 1:3 red color complex with Fe2+ and appears as a promising colorimetric probe for Fe2+. Using colorimetry, it has been possible to detect 10 parts of Fe2+ in 109 parts of water (540 nM).1,2

    Complexation between Fe2+ and 1,10-Phenanthrolin-5-amine and the quenching mechanism
    (Institute of Chemistry Ceylon, 2019-05) Wijesekera,G. I. P; De Costa,M.D. P; Senthilnithy,R
    1,10-Phenanthroline and its derivatives are very important chelating bidentate ligands for transition metal ions.1 From previous studies, it has been investigated that Fe2+ make stable complexes with 1,10-Phenanthroline and its derivatives.2
