Abstract: To accurately detect epinephrine (EP), in this work, three lanthanide terbium complexes (α -Tb-CCP, β-Tb-CCP, and γ-Tb-CCP) as cathode electrochemiluminescence (ECL) luminophores were synthesized via a simple hydrothermal synthesis method, and the β-Tb-CCP with the highest ECL intensity was chosen. The highest ECL signal of β-Tb-CCP is mainly attributed to its small size and surface aperture. Finally, a sensitive ECL sensor for EP detection was constructed with β-Tb-CCP as the luminophore, EP as the signal quencher, and flower-shaped zinc oxide as the ECL signal stabilizer and co-reaction accelerator. In a range of 0.1 pmol·L-1 to 10 mmol·L-1, the ECL intensity difference ΔI (ΔI=I0-I, where I0 and I correspond to the blank ECL intensity without EP and with EP, respectively) showed a good quantitative linear relationship with the logarithm of EP concentration (lg c). The linear equation was ΔI=684.3lg c+9 443.0 (R2=0.9978), and the detection limit was 18.2 fmol·L-1 (S/N=3). In addition, the detection results of EP hydrochloride injection were 0.954 mg:1 mL and 4.883 mg:5 mL, which were close to the declared EP contents in the injection.
