Abstract We have prepared and reporting a new cyanide colorimetric and turn-on fluorescent chemo sensor L. Naked-eye colorimetric studies shows the prepared receptor is selectively sensing cyanide ion in acetonitrile medium. The sensor L shows very weak fluorescence in acetonitrile medium. The emission intensity of L gets reduced (quenching of fluorescence) upon addition of one equivalent of cyanide. Meanwhile further gradual addition of more than one equivalents of cyanide onto 1:1 cyanide complex of L shows remarkable fluorescence enhancement. The weakly emissive receptor L show drastic enhancement in fluorescence intensity upon addition of excessive cyanide ion which is mainly attributed due to the restriction of intramolecular rotation of 1:1 L•CN- complex and intermolecular aggregation of host: guest complex. This enhanced fluorescence emission is attributed due to the aggregation induced enhanced emission (AIEE) is subsequently supported with UV-Vis, emission and 1H-NMR spectroscopic studies. The preferential binding of cyanide by electron deficient receptor L through hydrogen bonding and anion···π interaction over benzene analogue of L is also analyzed with help of MEP surface analyses. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example for selective colorimetric and turn- on cyanide sensor through AIEE mechanism. This type of fluorine rich organic material having such an aggregation enhanced emission properties in response to cyanide addition will be useful to construct the new type of material for various sensory applications.

A new Hg2+-sensing and selective fluorescent sensor, 1-(1-pyrenecarboxaldehyd e)-thiocarbohydrazone, was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and 1H NMR spectra. Its fluorescence and recognition properties to the mercury ion were studied by the fluorescence emission spectra. With adding mercury ion into solution, the fluorescence emission intensities at different characteristic wavelength changed continually. Hence the ratiometric fluorescence measurement was used for detecting the complex process. It was found that a 1:1 stoichiometry complex is formed between the mercury ion and the compound with the association constants were 2.04×105 L/mol, respectively. And the detection limits of the mercury ion were 2.52×10-8 mol/L.

4-Arilidene-5-(N,N-dimethyliminium)-2-(4,5-dihydrofurfurylidene)-N,N-dimethyliminium bisperchlorate I undergoes a 1,4-addition reaction with organic bases under re-formation of the furan nucleus; this behaviour has been utilized in the preparation of new 4-substituted 5-(N,N-dimethylamino)-2-furancarbaldehydes II, III. The structure of the prepared compounds has been confirmed by 13C and 1H NMR spectra.
