Fluorometric recognition of both dihydrogen phosphate and iodide by a new flexible anthracene linked
1Department of Chemistry, University of Kalyani, Kalyani-741235, India.
Abstract:
A new flexible anthracene linked benzimidazolium-based receptor 1 has been designed, synthesized and its binding properties have been studied by NMR, UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopic techniques. While the receptor 1 exhibits a greater change in emission in the presence of tetrabutylammonium dihydrogenphosphate in CH(3)CN over the other anions studied, iodide is selectively preferred in CHCl(3) containing 0.1% CH(3)CN. Upon complexation of dihydrogen phosphate and iodide, the emission of 1 gradually decreased without showing any other characteristic change in the spectra. Hydrogen bonding and charge-charge interactions interplay simultaneously in a cooperative manner for selectivity in the binding process.
