Abstract
A Novel calix[4]pyrrole system bearing carboxylic acid functionality [ABuCP] has been synthesized and its interaction towards various nitroaromatics compounds [NACs] were investigated. ABuCP showed significant color change with 1,3-dinitro benzene (1,3-DNB) in comparison to the solution of other nitroaromatic compounds such as 2,3-dinitro toluene (2,3-DNT), 2,4-dinitro toluene (2,4-DNT), 2,6-dinitro toluene (2,6-DNT), 4-NBB (4-nitrobenzyl bromide) and 4-nitro toluene (4-NT). The ABuCP-1,3-DNB complex produces a red shift in absorption spectra based on charge transfer mediated recognition. Additionally, the density functional theory calculation confirmed the possible mechanism for the binding of 1,3-DNB as a guest is well supported by the calculation of other parameters such as hardness, stabilization energy, softness, electrophilicity index and chemical potential. The TDDFT calculation facilitates the understanding of the proper binding mechanism in reference to experimental results. Additionally we have also developed its derivative which acts as a new fluorescent sensor which can selectively recognize Sr(II) ions. In this view its aminoanthraquinone derivative of calix[4]pyrrole i.e. ABuCPTAA is synthesized which also results in generation of high fluorescence capability sensor.
