Title: Synthesis of dipicolylamino substituted quinazoline as chemosensor for cobalt(II) recognition based on excited-state intramolecular proton transfer. Author: Luo HY, Zhang XB, He CL, Shen GL, Yu RQ. Journal: Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc; 2008 Jul; 70(2):337-42. PubMed ID: 18024189. Abstract: A new fluorescent chemosensor for sensing Co(II) using di(2-picolyl)amino (DPA) as a recognition group and quinazoline as a reporting group has been synthesized and characterized. The quinazoline derivative contains an intramolecular hydrogen bond, which would undergo excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) at illumination. The fluorescence quenching is attributed to cation-induced inhibition of ESIPT, which constitutes the basis for the determination of Co(II) with the prepared chemosensor. The fluorophore forms 1:1 cobalt(II) complex with the logarithm of apparent dissociation constant log K(a)=6.8. The analytical performance characteristics of the proposed Co(II)-sensitive sensor were investigated. The chemosensor exhibits a linear response toward Co(II) in the concentration range 3.2 x 10(-8) to 1.4 x 10(-6) M, with a working pH range from 7.0 to 9.5 and high selectivity.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
