ãAddressing Multiple Ions Using Single Optical Probe: Multi-Color Response via Mutually Independent Sensing Pathwaysã?was written by Dey, Nilanjan; Bhattacharjee, Subham; Bhattacharya, Santanu. Formula: C6H6BrN And the article was included in ChemistrySelect in 2020. The article conveys some information:
Multiresponsive smart optical probe based on p-phenylene vinylene backbone is designed for simultaneous sensing of multiple ions, such as Cu2+, Zn2+ and F- at pH 7.4. A rapid color change from colorless to deep yellow is observed upon addition of both Cu2+ and Zn2+ ion. However, under long UV lamp, the green-colored emission of the probe is specifically quenched in the presence of Cu2+, while Zn2+ induces change in the emission color from green to yellow. On the contrary, F-, unlike Cu2+ and Zn2+, does not render any change in visible color, however, an emission quenching, similar to that of Cu2+ addition, was noticed. The binding of metal ions to the central bipyridine core diminishes the â²conformational flexibilityâ?and facilitates â²ligand to metal ionâ?charge transfer. On the contrary, addition of fluoride triggers the cleavage of silyl ether groups and results in the photo-induced electron transfer from free hydroxyl groups to the core aromatic unit. Thus, we can detect as well as discriminate these three ions (Cu2+, Zn2+ and F-) simultaneously by comparing the resp. output signals. Further, a sustainable strategy has been developed for on-site detection of toxic ions using reusable, low-cost paper strips.2-Bromo-5-methylpyridine(cas: 3510-66-5Formula: C6H6BrN) was used in this study.
2-Bromo-5-methylpyridine(cas: 3510-66-5) belongs to pyridine. When pyridine is adsorbed on oxide surfaces or in porous materials, the following species are commonly observed: (i) pyridine coordinated to Lewis acid sites, (ii) pyridine H-bonded to weakly acidic hydroxyls, and (iii) protonated pyridine. At high coverage, physisorbed pyridine and protonated dimers can also be observed.Formula: C6H6BrN
