A new fluorescent probe based on a bis-benzimidazole diamide N 2,N 2′-bis[(1-ethyl-benzimidazol-2-yl)methyl]biphenyl-2,2′-dicarboxamide ligand L 1 with a biphenyl spacer group and a Copper(II) trinuclear metallacycle has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single crystallography, elemental and spectral (FT-IR, 1H & 13C NMR, UV-Visible) analysis. The fluorescence spectra of L 1 in MeOH show an emission band centered at 300 nm. This band arises due to benzimidazolyl moiety in the ligating system. The diamide L 1 in the presence of Cu2+ show the simultaneous ‘quenching’ of (300 nm) and ‘enhancement’ of (375 nm) emission band. Similar fluorescence behavior was found in water–methanol mixture (9:1). The new emission band at 375 nm is attributed to intra ligand π–π* transition of the biphenyl moiety. L 1 exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity towards Cu2+ in both the medium over other common metal ions like Ni2+, Co2+, Mn2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Pb2+ and Hg2+. The binding constant with Cu2+ was calculated by the Benesi-Hildebrand equation. Selective “off-on-off” behavior of L 1 in methanol has also been studied. The fluorescent intensity of 375 nm bands in L 1 enhances (turns-on) upon addition of Cu2+ and quenches (turn-off) upon addition of Na2-EDTA.
通过 X 射线单晶、元素和光谱(傅立叶变换红外光谱、1H &;13C NMR、紫外-可见光)分析。L 1 在 MeOH 中的荧光光谱显示出以 300 nm 为中心的发射带。该发射带是由连接系统中的苯并咪唑基引起的。在 Cu2+ 存在下,二酰胺 L 1 的发射带同时 "淬灭"(300 nm)和 "增强"(375 nm)。在水-甲醇混合物(9:1)中也发现了类似的荧光行为。375 nm 处的新发射带归因于联苯分子的配体内 π-π* 转变。在两种介质中,L 1 对 Cu2+ 都表现出较高的选择性和灵敏度,而对 Ni2+、Co2+、Mn2+、Mg2+、Zn2+、Pb2+ 和 Hg2+ 等其他常见金属离子的选择性和灵敏度则较低。与 Cu2+ 的结合常数是通过 Benesi-Hildebrand 公式计算得出的。还研究了 L 1 在甲醇中的选择性 "开关 "行为。加入 Cu2+ 时,L 1 中 375 nm 波段的荧光强度增强(开启);加入 Na2-EDTA 时,荧光强度熄灭(关闭)。
