Environmental pollution caused by aromatic compounds such as catechol (Cat) has become a major issue for human health. However, there is no simple, rapid, and low-cost method for on-site monitoring of Cat. Here, based on ECL quenching mechanism, we develop a simple, rapid and visual mesoporous silica (MSNs)-electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor for on-site monitoring of Cat. The mechanism of ECL quenching is due to the interaction between Cat and Ru(bpy)32+* and the interactions between the oxidation products of Cat and DBAE. MSNs films with ordered perpendicular mesopore channels exhibit an amplification effect of ECL intensity due to the negatively charged pore channel. There is a good linear relationship between ECL intensity and Cat concentration in the range of 10 ∼ 1000 μM with the limit of detection (LOD) of 9.518 μM (R2 = 0.99). The on-site sensor is promising to offer new opportunities for pharmaceuticals analysis, on-site monitoring, and exposure risk assessment.
