1st International Caparica Conference on Chromogenic and Emissive Materials; A new simple and multifunctional fluorescent probe based on pyrene linked through an imine bond to a hydroxyphenol unit was synthesised, fully characterized and investigated in solution. Additionally, its behaviour in the presence of several ions (H+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Fe2+, Hg2+ and Al3+) was investigated in CH2Cl2. It was...
The synthesis and full characterization of new bis-indolylmethanes containing thienyl and bithienyl moieties are reported. The sensor ability of the compounds in the presence of halide ions (F-, Cl-, Br- and I-), NO3-, ClO4-, SO42-, CN- and OH- ions was investigated in acetonitrile. The experimental results indicate that they could act as selective chromogenic-sensing molecules for the most basic anions F-, CN-...
