Abstract
- A new tetranaphthoimidazolium receptor was synthesized and reported to be a selective fluorescent chemosensor for phytate, myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (IP<subscript>6</subscript>). In a 100% aqueous solution at pH 7.4, chemosensor 1 showed a selective fluorescence enhancement for IP6 over IP<subscript>3</subscript>, phosphates, pyrophosphates, AMP, ADP and ATP. An excimer emission at 465 nm linearly increases in the range of 300 nM to 1 μM with a detection limit of 2.28 × 10<superscript>−7</superscript> M. In addition, first live cell imaging of IP<subscript>6</subscript> has been demonstrated by using a synthetic receptor. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
