β-Substituted porphyrins were developed as a quantitatively operating “lab-on-a-molecule” for the detection of F−and CN−ions, by switching between porphyrin, porphodimethene and porphyrinogen along with distinct solution colour changes and reversibility.

The widespread pollution of fluoride ions in the environment badly affects the ecological system due to their high toxicity, mobility and the difficulty of their degradation.

New azo-azomethine receptors, HLn (n = 1–3), have been synthesised via condensation reaction of 5-(4-X-phenyl)-azo-salicylaldehyde (X = NO2, Cl and CH3) with (4-nitrobenzylidene)hydrazine. The receptor with a p-NO2 substituent on the aromatic ring of the azo moiety (HL1) has excellent sensitivity and selectivity towards basic anions with proper discrimination between F− and AcO− or H2PO4− in DMSO–water (4 : 1). A Job’s plot displays a 1 : 1 stoichiometry between HL1 and F− alone with a detection limit of 0.737 μM for fluoride ions. The solvatochromic behaviour of HL1 was probed by studying its UV-vis spectra in four pure organic solvents of different polarities and a meaningful correlation was observed. Furthermore, HL1 was used for detection of inorganic fluoride in toothpaste. The systematic density functional theory (DFT) and time dependent-DFT calculations have been carried out to investigate the mechanism of colourimetric sensing of fluoride ion by HL1 in the gas phase and in solution. Moreover, by using F− and H+ as chemical inputs, and the absorbance as output, a INHIBIT logic gate was constructed, which exhibits ‘Write–Read–Erase–Read’ ability without obvious degradation in its optical output.
