Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Sensing and recognition of ions and neutral molecules via synthetic receptors are of current interest in supramolecular chemistry because of their significant importance in several areas, such as chemistry, biology and environment. Compared with small molecules, polymers-based sensors displayed several importante advantages like signal amplification. In this way, the incorporation of molecular receptors such as calixarenes with conjugated polymer backbones is expected to enhance the signaling events related to a host–guest interaction. The preorganized binding sites, easy derivatization and flexible three-dimensional steric structures make calixarenes ideal construction platforms for molecular design to generate fluorescente receptors. The use of calixarenes as supramolecular scaffolds for this type of architectures has been explored and the sensing abilities of resultant polymers toward metal and molecular ions established. Based on the high sensitivity shown by the non-polymeric analogue CALIX-OCP-CBZ (notshown), to toxic metal cations, we decide two extend the sensing study to polymer materials. Herein, we report the preliminar results of the chemosensing ability of a new bicyclic calix[4]arene-carbazole-polymer (CALIX-OCP-PPE-CBZ) towards the detection of toxic metals in fluid phase.
