Abstract
Novel fluorescent anion chemosensors based on anthracene-isothiouronium derivatives were synthesized. Isomerism due to the intramolecular mobility in these isothiouronium salts was detected by 1 H NMR spectroscopy. The effect of the substituent, temperature and solvent on the isomerism was also examined. The anthracene-isothiouronium sensor showed significant fluorescent enhancement upon the addition of various anions such as fluoride, acetate, and dihydrogen phosphate, even in the presence of water.
