Abstract
Heavy metal pollutants, such as Pb2+ ions, pose a substantial hazard to human health and ecosystems, and it was of great significance to develop cost-effective and portable techniques for online and visual detection of Pb2+. Herein, we fabricated a novel chromogenic and fluorogenic dual-channel sensor NQA through a Schiff base reaction involving a dicyanoisophorone derivative and isoniazid, enabling effective detection of Pb2+ ions. Upon complexation with Pb2+ ions at a 1:1 M ratio, the fluorescence intensity of NQA exhibited a remarkable enhancement. The naked-eye colorimetric detection utilizing NQA demonstrated a distinct color change to specific Pb2+ ions concentration from yellow to light pink. Based on this principle, a smartphone-assisted sensing platform was developed for visual and high-quality identification of Pb2+ in real samples. The UV binding constant for Pb2+ ions was determined to be 1.84 × 105 M−1, with a detection limit of 0.38 μM. Furthermore, the versatility of NQA extended to applications in naked-eye test paper experiments, the detection of Pb2+ ions in real water samples and living cells, showcasing its potential for environmental and biological monitoring.
期刊介绍:
Tetrahedron publishes full accounts of research having outstanding significance in the broad field of organic chemistry and its related disciplines, such as organic materials and bio-organic chemistry.
Regular papers in Tetrahedron are expected to represent detailed accounts of an original study having substantially greater scope and details than that found in a communication, as published in Tetrahedron Letters.
Tetrahedron also publishes thematic collections of papers as special issues and ''Reports'', commissioned in-depth reviews providing a comprehensive overview of a research area.
