Novel Highly Selective Fluorescent Chemosensors for Hg(Ⅱ)

Based on Rhodamine,two novel fluorescent Hg2+ chemosensors(R1,R2) were synthesized from inexpensive starting materials.They were designed and synthesized with o-aminophenol and o-phenylenediamine derivatives as the Hg2+ chelator,the comparison between the photophysical properties of two chemosensor...

Summary:Based on Rhodamine,two novel fluorescent Hg2+ chemosensors(R1,R2) were synthesized from inexpensive starting materials.They were designed and synthesized with o-aminophenol and o-phenylenediamine derivatives as the Hg2+ chelator,the comparison between the photophysical properties of two chemosensor molecules was made.The chemosensors were designed with a photoinduced electron transfer(PET) mechanism.After binding to Hg2+ which blocks the PET process,the fluorescence intensity of the chemosensors was enhanced by up to 15-fold.They exhibit very strong fluorescence responses to Hg2+ and have remarkably higher selectivity for Hg2+ than for other metal ions including K+,Na+,Ca2+,Mg2+,Cd2+,Mn2+,Ni2+,Co2+,Zn2+,Cu2+,Cr3+,Fe3+,pb2+,Ag+,Al3+,Fe2+ and Sn2+ in Tris-HC1/sodium phosphate buffer.The fluorescence enhancement of R2 towards Hg2+ maintains stable in wide pH span(6.4-8.8) aqueous solutions.
