Tris(2,2'-bipyricline)ruthenium(II) chelate exhibits strong electrogenerated chemiluminescence during cathodic high-voltage pulse-polarization of pointed Pt electrode in aqueous solutions. The present method is based on a field emission or other type of tunnel emission of hot electrons into an aqueous electrolyte solution. The method allows the detection of tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) and its derivatives below nanomolar concentration levels and yields linear log-log calibration plots spanning several orders of magnitude of concentration.
