The simultaneous analytical discrimination of spectrally very similar components with time- and wavelength-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy is demonstrated for the fluorescent probe BP(OH)2 and its complexes with the d10 metal ions CdII and ZnII in water. Whereas the absorption and emission spectra of the three components largely overlap the fluorescence lifetimes differ significantly. As a consequence, analyzing steady-state emission spectra of samples containing unknown amounts of both metal ions yields poor results for the analytical validity but the recording of fluorescence decay curves at different emission wavelengths improves the quality of the results drastically. The two techniques are compared in terms of goodness and analytical accuracy of the fit as well as analytical applicability.
