Abstract
- A tripodal fluorescent probe L1 armed with Rhodamine B and 1-naphthaleneisothiocyanates was prepared in high yield. A study of the recognition properties revealed that probe L1 exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity towards Al <superscript>3+</superscript> through a "FRET" fluorescence response and colorimetric response with low detection limits of the order of 10 <superscript>-8</superscript> M. Meanwhile, probe L1 also possessed high recognition ability for I <superscript>-</superscript> through fluorescence decay, which given there are comparatively few selective fluorescent probes for I <superscript>-</superscript> , is significant. Furthermore, the complexation mechanisms were fully investigated by spectral titrations, <superscript>1</superscript> H NMR spectroscopic titrations and mass spectrometry. The utility of probe L1 as a biosensor in living cells (PC3 cells) towards Al <superscript>3+</superscript> ions has also been demonstrated.
