Abstract:
Schiff base linked1,2,3-triazole silane5has been synthesized through the Schiff base terminated alkyne with azido via click chemistry,the compound4 structure elucidated through X-ray crystallography, and the compound5 is well characterized through different techniques such asFT-IR, 1H and 13C NMR and Mass spectrometry. UV-visible sensing studies of synthesized compounds4 and5 have been performed, and both are efficient in detectingZn(II) ion, but compound 5 has imparted a higher mode of attraction to Zn(II) with limit of detection (LOD) value (1.4 x 10-6M) wherethe compound 4 is calculated to be (1.25 x 10-5M). By Job's method, the stoichiometric ratio of compound5 and Zn(II) iscalculated to bea 1:1 ratio. The complex of compound 5 with Zn(II) was prepared. A radical and oxidative species are responsible for the deteriorating of stabilized molecules. The synthesized compound 5hasantioxidant propertiesthat can potentially scavenge 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals. Further to verify the mode of binding interaction between compound 5andZn(II), computational Density functional theory (DFT) study was evaluated.
