Ethynylated triphenylamine monoboronic acid chemosensors: experimental and theoretical studies
1State Key Laboratory of Fine Chemicals, School of Chemical Engineering, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian, 116012, People's Republic of China.
Abstract:
New ethynylated triphenylamine boronic acid sensors 1 and 2 were designed and the photophysical properties, as well as the binding with tartaric acid and mandelic acid were studied. We found the emission intensity of the sensors is sensitive to the polarity of the solvents and the emission of sensor 2 is sensitive to protic solvents. Theoretical calculations on the low-lying excited states of these sensors predicted d-PET effect. Experimental observations show either a-PET effect or no significant PET effect for the sensors. The sensitivity of the emission of the sensors toward solvent polarity is used to rationalize the observed emission intensity-pH profiles.

Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
