Fluorogenic Hg2+-selective chemodosimeter derived from 8-hydroxyquinoline.

[reaction: see text] A new thioamide derivative of 8-hydroxyquinoline-benzothiazole was prepared, and its fluorogenic chemodosimetric behaviors toward transition-metal ions were investigated. The thioamide derivative showed highly Hg2+-selective fluorescence enhancing properties (167-fold) in 30% aqueous acetonitrile solution. The selective and sensitive signaling behaviors were found to originate from the Hg2+ ion induced transformation of the very weak fluorescent thioamide derivative into a highly fluorescent amide analogue.

Hg2+-selective OFF-ON and Cu2+-selective ON-OFF type fluoroionophore based upon cyclam.

[structure: see text]. A new cyclam derivative having two different fluorophores of pyrene and NBD subunits was prepared, and its Hg2+- and Cu2+-selective signaling behaviors were investigated. The detection limits for the analysis of Hg2+ and Cu2+ ions were found to be 7.9 x 10(-6) and 2.6 x 10(-7) M in aqueous acetonitrile solution (H2O-CH3CN = 10:90, v/v), respectively. The compound also exhibited a selective Hg2+/Cu2+-induced OFF-ON-OFF type of signaling pattern that can be utilized for the construction of functional supramolecular switching systems.
