Abstract

The synthesis and evaluation of a novel calix[4]arene-based fluorescent chemosensor 8 for the detection of Cd(2+) and Zn(2+) is described. The fluorescent spectra changes observed upon addition of various metal ions show that 8 is highly selective for Cd(2+) and Zn(2+) over other metal ions. Addition of Cd(2+) and Zn(2+) to the solution of 8 results in ratiometric measurement.
