Oxidized Bis(indolyl)methane:  A Simple and Efficient Chromogenic-Sensing Molecule Based on the Proton Transfer Signaling Mode

Abstract: [reaction: see text] Oxidized bis(indolyl)methane, 1, a simple chromophore containing an acidic H-bond donor moiety and a basic H-bond acceptor moiety, can act as a selective colorimetric sensor either for F(-) in aprotic solvent or for HSO(4)(-) and weak acidic species in water-containing medium. The deprotonation/protonation of oxidized bis(indolyl)methane 1 is responsible for the dramatic color change.

“…The results corroborated the absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy experiments. The observations from spectroscopic and color studies of NpTP upon addition of F − were attributed to hydrogen bonding, which is consistent with previous studies on hydrogen bonding interactions between the sensor and the analyte [24,49,73,74]. …”

“…A 1% (w/v) Triton X-114 (E. Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) was prepared by dissolving 1.0 g of Triton X-114 in 100-mL volumetric flask with stirring. The ligand, 3-((indolin-3-yl)(phenyl)methyl)indoline (IYPMI) (scheme 1) was synthesized according to literature [22]. …”

“…The small volume of the surfactant-rich phase obtained with this methodology permits the design of extraction schemes that are simpler, cheaper, more highly efficient and more environmentally friendly than those extractions that use organic solvents. Cloud point methodology practical application of surfactants in analytical chemistry has been used to separate and preconcentrate analyte compounds as a step prior to their determination after the formation of sparingly water-soluble complexes [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22].…”
