Abstract

Novel acridine-based fluorescence sensors containing alaninol ligands, L1 and D1, were designed and synthesized. The structure of the compound was characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS spectra. L1 and D1 possess efficient Cu2+ cation ON–OFF selective signaling behavior based on ligand-to-metal binding mechanism at physiological pH condition. Additionally, the L1–Cu(II) and D1–Cu(II) complexes could further serve as reversible OFF–ON signaling sensing ensemble to allow ratiometric response to amino acid anion in aqueous solution.
