We design and synthesize a novel bifunctional supramolecular pseudorotaxane chemosensor (G-WAP), which uses water soluble cationic pillar[5]arene (WAP) as the host and a phenazine imidazole (G) as guest. The real-time fluorescence response did show efficient quenching of the supramolecular pseudorotaxane chemosensor (G-WAP) upon the addition of Ag+ and an obvious fluorescence color change of the supramolecular pseudorotaxane chemosensor (G-WAP) is observed upon the addition of Hg2+. Excellent sensitivity and selectivity toward the Hg2+ and Ag+ detection were verified in the presence of other competitive cations, and the detection limits of G-WAP for Ag+ is 1.2 x 10(-8) M, for Hg2+ is 5.0 x 10(-7) M. Consequently, this supramolecular pseudorotaxane chemosensor proved to be an efficient tool in the identification of mercury and silver ions in water.
