A Ratiomeric Fluorescent Sensor for Zn2+ Based on N,N′-Di(quinolin-8-yl)oxalamide

Abstract

A new ratiometric fluorescent sensor (DQO) based on N,N'-Di(quinolin-8-yl) oxalamide has been designed and synthesized for selective detection of Zn. The fluorescence ratio (I /I) of DQO was enhanced 10-fold when Zn was present in a buffer aqueous solution at pH 8.66. The sensor showed linear response toward Zn in the concentration range 0-15 μM, and the detection limit was calculated to be 2.4 μM. A Job's plot implied the formation of a DQO/Zn complex with 1:1 stoichiometry, and the apparent association constant of DQO/Zn complex was computed to be 1.5 × 10 M.

Theoretical investigation and reconsideration of intramolecular proton-transfer-induced the twisted charge-transfer for the fluorescent sensor to detect the aluminum ion

“…Moreover, Quinoline is also an ideal tool for metal ion uorescence sensing based on good water solubility, good biocompatibility and large Stokes shift [27][28][29]. Generally, the practical chemical sensors mainly rely on various types of uorescence mechanisms, such as ESIPT [30], photoinduced electron transfer (PET) and ICT mechanisms [31][32][33].…”

“…Besides, uorescence detection is fast, efficient, and simple. 33,34 For example, imidazole-based compounds showed an increase in emission intensity in the presence of zinc ions. 35 Meanwhile, zinc sensing based on thiazole compounds showed turn on-off emission properties 36 and a strong emission response and a high quantum yield on addition of zinc ions (Fig.…”
