Abstract
Novel chemosensors based on 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)quinoline were prepared and evaluated for sensing metal cations. The photophysical properties of chemosensors 1-3 were examined and their ion-selectivity was evaluated by measuring their fluorescent emission responses to alkali, alkaline earth, and transition metalions. Chemosensors 1, 2 and 3 show ratiometric and enhanced fluorescence changes with transitional metals that are efficient fluorescence quenchers, especially 3 has a high binding constant with Hg2+ in CH3CN.
