Abstract:
[reaction: see text] A new saccharide sensor based on a tetrathiafulvalene-anthracene dyad with a boronic acid group was designed and synthesized. Our study employed the tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) unit as the electron-rich group in the saccharide sensor instead of an amine group, and this new sensor detects fructose with good selectivity.
