Abstract
This paper describes the synthesis of new chiral calix [4]arene derivative having (R)-2-phenylglycinol moiety (compound 6), and its chiral recognition studies for ascorbic acid (AA) enantiomers by using Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM). Initial experiments indicated that the outstanding selective chiral recognition (α) was observed as 2.61 for l-enantiomer of AA. The sensitivity (S) and the limit of detection (LOD) values for L-AA were calculated as 0.0226 Hz/μM and 0.63 μM, respectively. Furthermore, the sorption behavior and mechanism of AA onto compound 6 film were evaluated and the sorption data exhibited a good correlation with the Freundlich isotherm models. The maximum uptake of L-AA by the sensor was found as 5895.76 mg/g. In conclusion, chiral recognition of AA enantiomers as real-time, sensitive, selective and effective was performed by a calixarene derivative coated QCM sensor.
