Abstract
We prepared the monomer PCDA-HP composed of 5-hydroxy-N1,N3-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)isophthalamide (HP) as a cadmium ion tweezer and then polymerized them to form a polydiacetylene (PDA)-based sensor (PDA-HP), which displayed selective and sensitive colorimetric and fluorometric change upon addition of a cadmium ion (Cd2+) at both pH 7.4 and 6.8. The PDA-HP polymer was highly selective for Cd2+ over other metal ions with colorimetric change. In addition, the PDA-HP chemosensor also showed a red fluorescence change in the presence of Cd2+ at both pH 7.4 and 6.8. Naked-eye detection of Cd2+ was accomplished in an aqueous solution through a PDA-based sensor system. Finally, the lowest energy structure of an HP chelator was obtained by the crystal structure and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
