Ionic Liquid-Modified Gold Nanoparticle-Based Colorimetric Sensor for Perchlorate Detection via Anion-π Interaction.

ABSTRACT: A rapid and convenient nanoparticle(NP)-based colorimetric sensor was developed for determining the propellant oxidant, ammonium perchlorate (AP). The sensing element was manufactured by modifying gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with [(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)sulfanyl]acetic acid, which is an imidazolium-based ionic liquid (IL), to produce the IL@AuNP nanosensor stabilized by polyvinylpyrrolidone. The used IL is an exceptional IL which can attach to AuNPs through the sulfanyl-S atom. The sensing principle was based on observing the red shift in the surface plasmon resonance band of AuNPs leading to NP aggregation as a result of anion-π interaction of perchlorate anion with the zwitterionic form of IL@AuNPs so as to bring opposite charges face-to-face, thereby reducing the overall surfa
