Abstract:
An amidine based chemosensor AM-1 was synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopic (FT-IR, (1)H-NMR and mass) data and elemental analyses. Sensor AM-1 exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity towards Fe(3+), Fe(2+) and Cu(2+) in the presence of other surveyed ions (such as Sr(2+), Cr(3+), Co(2+), Ni(2+), Zn(2+), Ag(+), Al(3+), Ba(2+), Ca(2+), Cd(2+), Cs(+), Hg(2+), K(+), Li(+), Mg(2+), Mn(2+), Na(+) and Pb(2+)) with a distinct naked-eye detectable color change and a shift in the absorption band. Moreover, the emission of AM-1 was quenched selectively only in the presence of Fe(3+).

In the visual method, metal-ion indicators (metallochromic dyes), which have distinct colors in their free and complex forms, are added to the mixture to signal the titration's end point. They form stable complexes with metal ions, but these complexes are weaker than the corresponding metal–EDTA complexes. As a...
03:02Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
