Abstract

Both twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) and photoinduced electron transfer (PET) relaxation processes of N-phenyl-9-anthrylcarboxamide derivatives can be characterized by modified substitution of the phenyl group. Introduction of a methoxy group to phenyl moiety quenched fluorescence of the anthracene using TICT or PET process, and was not retrieved even using highly viscous media. The introduction of a methylene unit induced fluorescence emissions using a solvent with both viscosity and polarity. This phenomenon demonstrates that the effects of both TICT and PET are involved in this system. Based on these data, we synthesized a novel crown ether derivative 7: its analytical usefulness as a fluorescent chemosensor for alkaline earth metal ions is reported herein.
