RESUMO
This article reports an amide based Chemosensor used for selective detection of divalent Cu+2 and Ni+2 ions via Fluorescence turn off. The selective sensing ability of Chemosensor was investigated in presence of different metal ions Mg2+, Ag+, Fe2+, K+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Hg2+, Pb2+, Mn2+, Pd2+, Cd2+ and Mn3+ as competitive ions. The receptor i. e. Chemosensor formed complexes with metal ions in 1:1 stoichiometric ratio. The detection limit and binding constant calculated as 1.92×10-4 and 1.4×10-4 M and 2.16×103 M-1 and 3.09×103 M-1 for Cu2+ and Ni2+ions respectively. The complexes were characterized by UV/visible, FT-IR, 13C NMR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Further the structure and Crystallinity were calculated by P-XRD spectral analysis. The crystallinity found to be 65.27 and 67.87% respectively.
