The synthesis of two new water soluble azo dyes and their optical response to different anions is reported herein. Solution studies in water indicate that cyanide induces a colour change in these dyes, whereas no changes are observed in the presence of other anions, such as CH3COOH-, HSO4-, ClO3-, ClO4-, Cl-, Br-, H2PO4-, S2O3-, F-, NO3-, I-, NO2-, SO32-, S2-, C2O42-, SO42-, N-3(-), SCN-, F-, CO32-, HCO32-. In the second part of the paper, we report the incorporation of one of these dyes onto cellulosic fibres. The dye-sensitized cellulose materials were immersed in solutions of different anions and their response studied. The material is able to detect cyanide about 0.01-0.07 mu M in aqueous solution with high selectivity over other anions. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
