Abstract

A series of 1,1′-unsymmetrical bi-functionalized ferrocenyl hydrazone – enone molecular compounds (3–7) have been synthesized using a facile redmud supported solid state synthetic method. These unsymmetrical bi-functionalized derivatives involving fluorescent active group have been explored for their fluorescence based signaling and sensing behavior of metal cations in the subcellular level. The study showed significant intracellular metal recognition and imaging characteristics for their potential in applications related to bioimaging of heavy metal ions. Sensing behavior has also been studied to understand their scope in the detection of toxic phosgene gas using multi-probe spectroscopic and electrochemical methods.
