Abstract
A guanidine-based fluorescent receptor has been synthesised to study its binding behaviour towards anions (F− , Cl− , Br− , I− and AcO− ). The two donor N–H bonds of the receptor do not point in the same direction; rather, one N–H bond is intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded with the carbonyl oxygen atom. The nature of the donor–acceptor (DA) arrangement induces moderate binding properties. The binding behaviour towards monocarboxylic acids (benzoic acid and phenylacetic acid) is also compared. The binding behaviour of receptor 1 towards the F− anion is higher among the anions studied, whereas in the case of monocarboxylic acid, the binding constant with phenylacetic acid is higher than benzoic acid.
