Abstract
A fluorescent and colorimetric anion sensor based on the activated C-H group has been developed, and its reusability and ability to selectively detect cyanides have been demonstrated. The system utilizes trifluoromethylcarbinol-directed C-H regioselective cyanomethylation for direct C-C bond formation between the fluorophore and acetonitrile. The present paper also describes a novel strategy for the enhancement of carbanion stability by a potential intramolecular C[double bond, length as m-dash]OH-C hydrogen bonding system, thus providing a new way to develop activated CH-based anion receptors.
