Abstract A novel substituted imidazole derivative 1a with carboxyl and quinoline structure has been designed and synthesized. And our initial discovery is that this compound can effectively detect trace amounts of water in ethanol. And the metal in solution couldn’t affect the absorption and fluorescence Spectra of 1a. With the addition of water, the energy band appears a red-shift from 330nm to 355nm in the absorption spectra. And the emission spectrum undergoes an important change in its fluorescent effect in the presence of water. Furthermore, absorption peak of 1a displays a red-shift with increasing pH from 2.31 to 10.72. All available data (absorption and emission) strongly support the possible mechanism. Due to the pronounced fluorescence changing property, the substituted imidazole derivative 1a could be utilized as fluorescent probes for quantifying trace amount of water in ethanol.

This paper describes the preparation and spectral properties of a near-infrared fluorophore in which two bis(2-picolyl)amino moieties are axially linked to a silicon(IV) phthalocyanine core. The effects of various metal ions on its absorption and fluorescence spectra have been examined. The results indicate that this compound shows a high sensitivity and moderate selectivity toward Zn2+ ion.

Absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy techniques were applied to investigate the photophysical characteristics of acridine orange (AO) dye in solvents that included distilled water, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), acetone and ethanol in various concentrations (1×10-4–1×10-6) M. All of the samples were served at room temperature. The relationships between various parameters describing the strength of optical transitions in atoms and molecules were reviewed. This study expresses various viewpoints by describing how concentration and solvent affect the dye's absorption and fluorescence spectra. The absorption spectra of AO exhibit a band at (490 nm), except for DMSO, which shifts more towards red by 5 nm. The fluorescence spectra show a blue shift in AO aqueous solution around 6 nm until (0.5×10-4) M, followed by a red shift at around 7 nm at (1×10-6) M. There is a blue shift in (1×10-5) M for DMSO at around 4 nm, then a 10 nm red shift in higher concentrations as well as a 9 nm red shift in acetone and 6 nm in ethanol. Adding magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs) quenched AO in both absorption and fluorescence spectra, whereas maximum fluorescence and intensity increased when aluminium oxide nanoparticles (Al2O3 NPs) were added to the solution.

Background: Cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n], n=5, 6, 7, 8 and 10)is a type of macrocyclic compounds formed by n glycerol units and 2n methylene. The different size of the cavity led the different chemical characteristics of CB[n]. Therefore, it was very important to distinguish and detect CB[n]. Methods: At room temperature, Rhodamine B was added with gold nanoparticles solution. The above mixture was respectively mixed with different concentrations of Cucurbituril [n] or β-cyclodextrin solutions. The fluorescence spectra and ultraviolet-visible spectra of samples were determined. Results: It was found that 1.2nM gold nanoparticles could quench the fluorescence of 1μM Rhodamine B completely. After adding a certain amount of Cucurbituril[7], the fluorescence intensity of Rhodamine B was restored. Compared with other macrocyclic compounds, such as Cucurbituril[5], Cucurbituril[6] and β-cyclodextrin, we found that this method had unique selectivity for Cucurbituril[7]. Under the optimal conditions, the fluorescence recovery efficiency was linearly proportional to the concentration of Cucurbituril[7] in the range of 0.8-8 μg·mL-1. The detection limit was 0.21 μg·mL-1. Conclusion: We have established an effective and practical FRET-based detection method for CB[7] with RhB as donor and the gold nanoparticles as the acceptor. The system has unique and extensively selectivity for CB[7].
