Optical sensing of explosives in wastewater by competitive complexation

A facile strategy for optical sensing of explosives with the assistance of 1,3,5-Triazine-2,4,6-triamine (MEL) in aqueous solution is proposed. Upon exposure to MEL, the electron-sufficient amino group in MEL was prone to form complexes with electron-deficient nitro group in explosives. The interact...
