Title: Two new rhodamine-based fluorescent chemosensors for Fe3+ in aqueous solution. Author: Liu Y, Xu Z, Wang J, Zhang D, Ye Y, Zhao Y. Journal: Luminescence; 2014 Nov; 29(7):945-51. PubMed ID: 24700778. Abstract: Two new rhodamine-based fluorescent probes were synthesized and characterized by NMR, high resolution mass spectrometer (HR-MS) and IR. The probes displayed a high selectivity for Fe(3+) among environmentally and biologically relevant metal ions in aqueous solution (CH3OH-H2O = 3 : 2, v/v). The significant changes in the fluorescence color could be used for naked-eye detection. Job's plot, IR and (1)H NMR indicated the formation of 1: 1 complexes between sensor 1 and Fe(3+). The reversibility establishes the potential of both probes as chemosensors for Fe(3+) detection. The probe showed highly selectivity in aqueous solution and could be used over the pH range between 5 and 9. A simple paper test-strip system for the rapid monitoring of Fe(3+) was developed, indicating its convenient use in environmental samples.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
