In this study a new fluorescent Schiff base; 1,1′-(4,4′-oxybis(4,1-phenylene)bis(azan-1-yl-1-ylidene))bis(methan-1-yl-1-ylidene)dinaphthalen-2-ol (2-HNA) was synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, UV-vis, and 1H and 13C-NMR techniques. Photoluminescent properties of 2-HNA were investigated in different solvents including methanol, THF, DMF, DMSO, acetone, acetonitrile, and dichloromethane. 2-HNA was found to have higher emission intensity and Stoke’s shift value (∆λST) in methanol solution. Relative emission intensity changes (I0−I/I0) of 2-HNA in methanol/water mixtures depending on different Cu+2 ion concentrations were determined and a linearized plot was obtained. Possible interference of some other transition metal ions was also determined. Sensitivity limit of the new sensor was found to be higher than 5 × 10−7 mol/L. 2-HNA has quite high selectivity against Cu+2 ion and, thus, can be used as a new fluorescence Cu+2 ion sensor in practice.
本研究合成了一种新型荧光希夫碱:1,1′-(4,4′-氧双(4,1-亚苯基)双(偶氮-1-基-1-亚基))双(
甲烷-1-基-1-亚基)二
萘-2-醇(2-HNA),并利用傅立叶变换红外光谱、紫外可见光谱、1H 和 13C-NMR 技术对其进行了表征。研究了 2-HNA 在不同溶剂(包括
甲醇、THF、
DMF、
DMSO、
丙酮、
乙腈和
二氯甲烷)中的光致发光特性。发现 2-HNA 在
甲醇溶液中具有更高的发射强度和斯托克偏移值(∆λST)。根据不同的 Cu+2 离子浓度,测定了 2-HNA 在
甲醇/
水混合物中的相对发射强度变化(I0-I/I0),并得到了线性化曲线图。此外,还测定了其他一些过渡
金属离子可能造成的干扰。新传感器的灵敏度极限高于 5 × 10-7 mol/L。2-HNA 对 Cu+2 离子具有相当高的选择性,因此可作为一种新型荧光 Cu+2 离子传感器用于实际应用。
