    Abstract:
    A simple, sensitive dual-emission probe was developed for the detection of phosphate (Pi). The probe Tb-BTB/DPA was synthesized by mixing dual-ligand, 1,3,5-tri(4-carboxyphenyl) benzene (H3BTB) and dipicolinic acid (DPA), with metal ions Tb3+ in ethanol-water solution at 40℃ for 2 h. Tb-BTB/DPA exhibits two emission peaks, the emission at 362 nm is attributed to H3BTB, an energy transfer between Tb3+ nodes, and DPA further enhances the fluorescence of Tb3+ at 544 nm. Pi competes with ligand H3BTB to coordinate Tb3+, resulting in partial collapse of the Tb-BTB/DPA structure and interrupting the electron transfer between H3BTB and Tb3+. Therefore, the emission at 362 nm is enhanced, while the emission at 544 nm is unchanged, and a ratiometric fluorescence method is developed to detect Pi. Tb-BTB/DPA exhibits good linearity within the Pi concentration range (0.1-50 µmol/L), and the detection limit was 25.8 nmol/L. This study provides a new way to prepare probes with dual emission sensing properties.
