Synthesis and evaluation of a novel pyrenyl-appended triazole-based thiacalix[4]arene as a fluorescent sensor for Ag+ ion
摘要:
New fluorescent chemosensors 1,3-alternate-1 and 2 with pyrenyl-appended triazole-based on thiacalix[4]arene were synthesized. The fluorescence spectra changes suggested that chemosensors 1 and 2 are highly selective for Ag+ over other metal ions by enhancing the monomer emission of pyrene in neutral solution. However, other heavy metal ions, such as Cu2+, and Hg2+ quench both the monomer and excimer emission of pyrene acutely. The H-1 NMR results indicated that Ag+ can be selectively recognized by the triazole moieties on the receptors 1 and 2 together with the ionophoricity cavity formed by the two inverted benzene rings and sulfur atoms of the thiacalix[4]arene.

The novel heteroditopic receptors 5(a similar to c) have been synthesized, which bear a thiacalix[4]arene in the 1,3-alternate conformation. Two urea moieties possessing various aryl groups with either electron-donating or -withdrawing groups at their p-positions function as anion-binding sites. At the opposite side of the cavity are two pyrene-appended triazole rings, which act as cation-binding sites. The binding property of receptor 5(c) was investigated by means of H-1 NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy and by fluorescence titration experiments in the presence of various transition metal cations and anions in CH2Cl2-DMSO (10:1, v/v) solution. Interestingly, it was found that receptor 5(c) possessing two p-nitrophenyl ureido moieties, most efficiently complexes in the urea cavity or bistriazoles; the plausible allosteric effect of receptor 5(c) was also investigated.
