Abstract: | A sensitive fluorescent probe 2-(1-phenyl-1H-benzod]imidazol-2-yl)phenol (HBIZ) for pH and Zn2+ has been developed. Great changes have taken place in the UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectra for HBIZ upon increasing pH of its aqueous solution, acting as a pH-induced emission "off-on-off" switch with large enhancement factors of ~290 and ~75 over the pH range of 1.00-5.40 and 5.20-10.40. A over 100-fold fluorescence enhancement was also observed after complexation of HBIZ to Zn2+ in N,N-dimethylformamide. |
