Tris(indolyl)methene molecule as an anion receptor and colorimetric chemosensor: tunable selectivity and sensitivity for anions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Simple tris(indolyl)methene receptors 1-3 containing conjugated bisindole skeletons have been designed and synthesized. The anion binding and sensing properties have been studied using UV-vis spectroscopy and (1)H NMR titration technique. Compared with 3,3'-bis-indolyl phenylmethene (4), tris(indolyl)methene receptors could highly selectively detect F(-) based on two stages of proton transfer, along with stepwise drastic color changes. The introduction of the electron withdrawing or donating groups into indole unit, which tunes the acidities of the hydrogen bond sites, partially enhanced or inhibited the occurrence of the deprotonation of receptor and has a positive effect on the selectivity and sensitivity of such "proton-transfer" chemosensors for anions.

A new azo-azomethine chemosensor containing active phenolic sites, H2L, has been designed and synthesized for rapid detection of inorganic fluoride over the other anions, such as Clˉ, Brˉ, Iˉ, AcOˉ, H2PO4ˉ, NO3ˉ, N3ˉ in DMSO/water (90/10) media. The 1H NMR titration revealed that the colorimetric response was considered to be the direct consequence of hydrogen-bond formation between phenolic gr...

Bis(indolyl)methene displays high selectivity and sensitivity for aspartate and glutamate in water-containing medium based on the proton transfer signaling mode. The presence of acid can easily induce proton transfer to the basic H-bond acceptor moiety, which modulates the internal charge transfer state of the bis(indolyl)methene skeleton and gives rise to dramatic change in color. The detectio...
