RESUMEN
A novel fluorescent chemosensor based on trimesoyl chloride-rhodamine (TR) was successfully synthesized. Rising chromogenic and fluorogenic spectral enhancements could be observed in trimesoyl chloride-rhodamine (TR) probes when Hg2+ and Fe3+ were added, respectively. TR has shown selectivity for Hg2+ and Fe3+ with high sensitivity due to metal ion complexation induced photophysical "turn-on" signaling responses. The detection limit towards Hg2+ was 2.46 × 10-8 M as determined by the 3σ method. At the same time, fluorogenic spectral enhancements were observed in TR, which exhibits a superior sensitive and selective recognition towards Fe3+ with 4.11 × 10-8 M of the detection limit. The test strips were used for colorimetric and simple detection towards Hg2+, which might finally enable the advancement of the Hg2+ sensor in the field of on-site detection.
RESUMEN
Supramolecular gels have been widely reported on account of their unique superiority and application prospects. In this work, we constructed a novel supramolecular gel (HD-G) by using hydroxy-naphthaldehyde decorated with naphthalimide in DMSO solution, which exhibited excellent selectivity and ultrasensitive sensing properties toward CN- (the lowest detection limit is 1.82 × 10-10 M). The sensing mechanism of this supramolecular gel takes advantage of π-π stacking interactions and anion-π interactions, which is different from the other familiar methods.
