Abstract
Abstract A new highly selective fluorescent chemosensor for Ag + was developed based on an imidazole conjugated quinolone bearing a thiol group ( IQT ). The Chemosensor serves as fluorescence quencher for Ag + in solution in the presence of other competing metal ions. Further, the in situ formed IQT -Ag + complex is utilized as a reversible sensor for the amino acid, Proline with high selectivity over other amino acids by a fluorescence enhancement mechanism as relay recognition process. The practical applications for sensor IQT is also demonstrated by the complete removal of Ag + ions from the environmental water samples via electrochemical desalination techniques and its bioimaging in cellular micro-organisms.
