ABSTRACT
Excessive fluoride ion (F-) in the environment can affect health and even endanger life when ingested by the human body. However, most fluoride probes have the disadvantages of low sensitivity and long detection time. Herein, fluorescent probe 3a is successfully synthesized by linking two acetylenyltrimethylsilyl groups at both ends of the fluorinated benzothiadiazole core. After the addition of F- to 3a, the emission at 436 nm is significantly quenched and slightly blue-shifted. It is confirmed by electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry (ESI-HRMS) and density functional theory calculations (DFT) that these changes are due to the F- triggered Si-C bond cleavage and the subsequent inactivation of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). The detection limit and response time of probe 3a for F- are 10-8 mol/L and 25 s, respectively. Importantly, fluorescent material 3a can be processed into portable test tools for the visual detection of fluoride ion.
