Colorimetric and fluorimetric detection of fluoride ion using thiazole derived receptor

Thiazole based receptor 3, was designed and synthesized by condensation reactionof5-chlorosalicylaldehyde with 4-(4-phenylthiazol-2-yl)semicarbazide for colorimetric and fluorimetric detection of fluoride ion. Receptor 3 was characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and HRMS, and shows absorption in 280-400 nm region with emission at 442 nm in tetrahydrofuran (THF). Addition of fluoride ion to the THF solution of receptor 3 results in color change from colorless to yellow with significant change in UV-Visible absorption. The receptor-anion interaction occurs via hydrogen bonding followed by deprotonation which results in large bathochromic shift in absorption spectra and naked-eye color change. The colorimetric changes show selective response for fluoride ions over other anions. Fluorescence studies exhibit remarkable enhancement in emission intensity upon addition of fluoride ion with a limit of detection (LOD) of 8.6 nM. The ¹H NMR titration studies exhibit deprotonation of the -OH proton of the salicylaldimine moiety resulting significant colorimetric and fluorimetric changes.

A novel tripodal colorimetric and fluorescence "turn on" chemosensor for AcO(-) and F(-) anions in CH3CN

A novel chemosensor, 3',3‴,3‴″-(((nitrilotris(ethane-2,1-diyl))tris(azanylylidene))tris(methanylylidene))tris(4-hydroxy-4'-biphenylcarbonitrile) (L) was synthesized and characterized by the combination of (1)H,(13)C, APT, COSY NMR, FT-IR, and elemental analysis. The behavior of the receptor (L) toward different anions was investigated using UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy. The receptor (L) indicated an efficient colorimetric "naked-eye" and "turn on" fluorescent response for fluoride and acetate in CH3CN, respectively.
