Abstract: | A novel thiosemicarbazone fluorophore (3) was successfully synthesized in 3 steps via Sonogashira coupling and Knoevenagel condensation using baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) as a biocatalyst. Compound 3 contains triphenylacetylene, which acts as a fluorophore, and thiosemicarbazone, which acts as a copper probe. Compound 3 exhibited highly selective detection of Cu2+ ions based on photoinduced electron transfer (PET) in 10 mM HEPES buffer pH 7.4/propylene glycol (70% (v/v)). A linear relationship was observed for Cu2+ concentrations between 0.1 nM and 10 μM, and the detection limit of the method was 0.14 nM. Additionally, 3 was utilized to detect Cu2+ in wastewater with satisfactory results, which highlighted its potential for real sample applications. |
