Fluorescence of N,N-di(2-carboxyethyl)-<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-anisidine in solution and crystalline states

The fluorescence properties of N,N-di(2-carboxyethyl)-p-anisidine (I) in solvents of various nature and in the crystalline state have been studied at room temperature (273 K) and at the boiling point of liquid nitrogen (77 K). Fluorescence in aqueous solutions of I with protonated (λ _ex /λ _fl ^max = 225/290 nm) and unprotonated (λ _ex /λ _fl ^max = 270/380 nm) amino nitrogen has been detected. On going from aqueous solutions to nonaqueous, the fluorescence band of unprotonated I experiences a blue shift and its intensity rises. The fluorescence intensity of the band in aprotic polar solvents is higher than that in protic solvents. A linear dependence of the fluorescence intensity of deprotonated I on Cu(II) concentration (ranging from 1.0 to 5.0 mg/dm³) in aqueous solution has been found. The fluorescence intensity of I in aqueous solutions at 77 K and pH 1–6 has been shown to increase in the presence of Zn(II) (1–170 mg/dm³) and Cd(II) (2–330 mg/dm³) although a similar dependence is not observed at 293 K.     

Spectral Properties, Cation Selectivity, and Dynamic Efficiency of Fluorescent Alkali Ion Indicators in Aqueous Solution Around Neutral pH

The spectral properties of two fluorescent alkali ion indicators, the commercially available cryptand CD222 and a new bipyridyl-type cryptand, F[bpy.bpy.2], bearing the trifluorocoumarino residue are investigated in aqueous solution as a function of pH as well as around neutral pH in the presence of alkali and alkaline earth cations. From the values of the acidity constants it is concluded that bridgehead nitrogen deprotonation occurs at a much lower pH for CD222 (pK _a below 5.5) than for F[bpy.bpy.2]. Spectrofluorometric titrations with salts of NH⁺ ₄, TI⁺, and alkali as well as alkaline earth cations indicate that both indicators are K⁺ selective. F[bpy.bpy.2] shows the higher K⁺/Na⁺ selectivity and larger fluorescence intensity changes but the slower dynamic response. Under suitable conditions, alkali ion binding by CD222 can occur in less than 1 ms.     

Absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy of 3-hydroxy-3-phenyl-1-o-carboxyphenyltriazene and its copper (II), nickel (II) and zinc (II) complexes: a novel fluorescence sensor

Absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic properties of 3-hydroxy-3-phenyl-1-o-carboxyphenyltriazene (HT) are studied. The mechanism of photo-induced electron transfer (PET) followed by energy transfer process of the ligand and the Cu (II), Ni (II) and Zn (II) metal complexes have been investigated. The excited state photo induced intramolecular hydrogen transfer from N-OH to triazene 1-nitrogen atom is explained. The effect of pH, solvent and concentration on the absorption and fluorescence of the ligand is studied and it has been found that the absorption and fluorescence of HT is highly pH, solvent and concentration dependent. Participation of the N-OH proton of HT in the solvent assisted O to N-proton transfer has also been proposed. The fluorescence band shift and changes in intensity is modulated by protonation and complexation with metal ions. This fluorophore can thus be used as a pH dependent and M⁽ⁿ⁺¹⁾⁺/Mⁿ⁺ redox on/off switchable molecular sensor.     

Selective Fluorimetric Recognition of Cesium Ion by 15-Crown-5-Anthracene

A selective fluorescent cesium optode on a chromoionophore consisting of anthracene covalently linked through an imine bond to a 15-crown-5 derivative has been reported. In the present system, 15-crown-5 derivative including anthracene was used a fluoroionophore. The fluorescence response mechanism is based on the photo-induced electron transfer (PET) from the lone pair of electrons of the nitrogen to the anthracene group and inhibition of PET system by cesium binding while increasing the fluorescence intensity. Emission intensity 15-crown-5 anthracene was measured at 500 nm with absorbance at 400 nm in CH₃CN–H₂O (1:1) media. The method shows a very good selectivity and sensitivity for cesium with respect to other cations such as K⁺, Na⁺ and Li⁺ with linear range and detection limit of 5.0 × 10⁻⁵ to 5.0 × 10⁻¹M and 3.0 × 10⁻⁶M respectively.     

Crystal structure of Ni(II) complex and fluorescence properties of Zn(II) complex with the Schiff base derived from diethenetriamine and PMBP

The Schiff base, H₂L, was derived from 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-5-pyrazolone (PMBP) and diethenetriamine. The crystal structure of [NiL(C₂H₅OH)]·H₂O obtained from ethanol solution was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The coordination geometry of Ni(II) ion is a distorted octahedron with three oxygen atoms and three nitrogen atoms. Under the excitation of ultraviolet light, strong fluorescence of solid Zn(II) complex was observed. In addition, the fluorescence enhancement was obtained in the presence of Zn²⁺ in THF solution of the ligand, indicating that H₂L may be a potential fluorescent sensor for Zn²⁺.     

Fluorescence and Laser Emission from Coumarin-Acridine Orange Mixtures

The sensitized fluorescence and laser emissions of dye mixtures; (I) coumarin 102 (donor) and acridine orange (acceptor) and (II) coumarin 47 (donor) and acridine orange (acceptor) with Hg-lamp and N₂ laser, have been measured as a function of dye concentration and of the pump power (N₂ laser). Acridine orange which does not lase by itself on excitation with N₂ laser, lases efficiently in the presence of 7-amino-coumarins via singlet-singlet energy transfer. Energy transfer rate constants and critical distances have been estimated from fluorescence intensity and lifetime measurements. The performance of energy transfer dye lasers (ETDLs) are discussed in terms of spectral characteristics of the dyes and their penetration depths.     

Photophysical studies of PET based acridinedione dyes with globular protein: Bovine serum albumin

Interaction of acridinedione dyes with model transport proteins, bovine serum albumin (BSA) in aqueous solution were investigated by fluorescence spectral studies. A fluorescence enhancement was observed on the addition of BSA to photoinduced electron transfer (PET) based acridinedione dyes, which posses C₆H₄(p-OCH₃) in the 9th position of the basic acridinedione ring. On the contrary, the addition of BSA to non-PET based acridinedione dyes with methyl or phenyl substitution in the 9th position does not result in any fluorescence enhancement. The enhancement in the fluorescence intensity is attributed to the suppression of PET process through space between -OCH₃ group and the acridinedione moiety is elucidated by steady state fluorescence measurements. The fluorescence anisotropy value (r) of 0.40 reveals that the motion of the dye molecule is highly constrained and is largely confined to the rigid microenvironment of the protein molecule. The binding constant (K) was found to be in the order of 6.0×10³ [M]⁻¹, which implies the existence of hydrophobic interaction between the PET based dye and BSA. Time resolved fluorescence lifetime measurements reveal that the PET based acridinedione dye preferably binds in the hydrophobic interior of BSA.

Coumarin Based Fluorescent Probe for Colorimetric Detection of Fe<Superscript>3+</Superscript> and Fluorescence Turn On-Off Response of Zn<Superscript>2+</Superscript> and Cu<Superscript>2+</Superscript>

A new coumarin based Schiff-base chemosensor-(E)-7-(((8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methylene) amino)-4-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one (H ₁₁ L) was synthesized and evaluated as a colorimetric sensor for Fe³⁺ and fluorescence “turn on-off” response of Zn²⁺ and Cu²⁺ using absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. Upon treatment with Fe³⁺ and Zn²⁺, the absorption intensity as well as the fluorescence emission intensity increases drastically compared to other common alkali, alkaline earth and transition metal ions, with a distinct color change which provide naked eye detection. Formation of 1:1 metal to ligand complex has been evaluated using Benesi-Hildebrand relation, Job’s plot analyses, ¹H NMR titration as well as ESI-Mass spectral analysis. The complex solution of H ₁₁ L with Zn²⁺ ion exhibited reversibility with EDTA and regenerate free ligand for further Zn²⁺ sensing. H ₁₁ L exhibits two INHIBIT logic gates with two different chemical inputs (i) Zn²⁺ (IN1) and Cu²⁺ (IN2) and (ii) Zn²⁺ (IN1) and EDTA (IN2) and the emission as output. Again, an IMPLICATION logic gate is obtained with Cu²⁺ and EDTA as chemical inputs and emission as output mode. Both free ligand as well as metal-complexes was optimized using density functional theory to interpret spectral properties. The corresponding energy difference between HOMO-LUMO energy gap for H ₁₁ L, H₁₁L-Zn²⁺ and H₁₁L-Cu²⁺ are 2.193, 1.834 and 0.172 eV, respectively.     

A turn-on fluorescent anion receptor based on N,N′-di-β-naphthyl-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diamide

A simple turn-on fluorescent anion chemosensor with amide moiety as binding sites was designed, synthesized and characterized. Binding ability of the receptor 1 with anions was evaluated through the fluorescence titration in DMSO and the ¹H NMR titration in DMSO-d₆ and coordination of anions to 1 led to a visible enhancement in fluorescence intensity. The fluorescence enhancement could be explained on the basis of two signaling transduction mechanisms: (1) inhibition of a photoinduced electronic transfer (PET) mechanism and (2) anion-induced increase of the rigidity of the host molecules. In addition, the results of ¹H NMR titrations suggested that a host-guest hydrogen-bonding complex with an association constant K_ass=7379 mol⁻¹ L was formed between 1 and F⁻ and the mode of host-guest interactions was provided.     

Determination of Bioactive Matter by Affinity Adsorption Solid Substrate–Room Temperature Phosphorimetry Based on Lectin Labeled with Self-ordered Ring of Eosin Y

A new phosphorescent labeling reagent named self-ordered ring (ESOR) of eosin Y (E) was developed. And the application of the determination of bioactive matter by affinity adsorption solid substrate–room temperature phosphorimetry (AA-SS-RTP) based on ESOR labeling lectin was studied. Results showed that pink and homogeneous ESOR could be formed by E on polyamide membrane (PAM) in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and ammonia water. ESOR could emit strong and stable room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) signal of E in the presence of heavy atom perturber. Specific affinity adsorption (AA) reactions could be carried out between the products of concanavalin agglutinin (Con A), triticum vulgaris lectin (WGA) labeled with ESOR and alpha-fetoprotein variant (AFP-V), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), glucose (G), respectively. Not only did the products of the affinity adsorption reactions preserve good RTP characteristic of E, but also the ΔI _p (ΔI _p = I _p2 − I _p1, I _p1 is the RTP intensity of blank reagent, I _p2 is the RTP intensity of sample) of these products was proportional to the content of AFP-V, ALP and G, respectively. According to the facts above, a new method of AA-SS-RTP for the determination of AFP-V, ALP and G was established, based on ESOR labeling lectin. Detection limits (LD) of this method were 0.040 fg spot⁻¹ for AFP-V, 0.045 fg spot⁻¹ for ALP and 0.090 fg spot⁻¹ for G. And it has been successfully applied to the determination of AFP-V in human serum as well as the survey and forecast of human diseases. This method had high sensitivity, good repeatability, long RTP lifetime and little background interference with at the long wavelength area. Meanwhile, the mechanism for the determination of trace AFP-V by AA-SS-RTP based on Con A labeled with ESOR was also discussed.     

Density functional theory study on a fluorescent chemosensor device of aza‐crown ether

Three derivatives of alkyl anthracene covalently bonded to aza‐18‐crown‐6 at the nitrogen position, anthracene(CH₂)_n, (n = 1–3) which act as an on–off fluorogenic photoswitch have been theoretically studied using a computational strategy based on density functional theory at B3LYP/6‐31 + G(d,p) method. The fully optimized geometries have been performed with real frequencies which indicate the minima states. The binding energies, enthalpies and Gibbs free energies have been calculated for aza‐18‐crown‐6 ( L ) and their metal complexes. The natural bond orbital analysis is used to explore the interaction of host–guest molecules. The absorption spectra differences between L and their metal ligands, the excitation energies and absorption wavelength for their excited states have been studied by time‐dependent density functional theory with the basis set 6‐31 + G(d,p). These fluorescent sensors and switchers based on photoinduced electron transfer mechanism have been investigated. The PET process from aza‐crown ether to fluorophore can be suppressed or completely blocked by the entry of alkali metal cations into the aza‐crown ether‐based receptor. Such a suppression of the PET process means that fluorescence intensity is enhanced. The binding selectivity studies of the aza‐crown ether part of L indicate that the presence of the alkali metal cations Li⁺, Na⁺ and K⁺ play an important role in determining the internal charge transfer and the fluorescence properties of the complexes. In addition, the solvent effect has been investigated. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Slow positron beam study of nitrogen implanted CZ-Si subjected to rapid thermal processing

In this experiment, nitrogen ions were implanted into CZ-silicon wafer at 100 keV at room temperature with the fluence of 5 × 10¹⁵ N₂⁺/cm², followed by rapid thermal processing (RTP) at different temperatures. The single detector Doppler broadening and coincidence Doppler broadening measurements on slow positron beam were carried out to characterize the defects in the as-implanted silicon and RTP-treated samples. It is found that both nitrogen-vacancy complexes (N-Vsi) and oxygen-vacancy complexes (O-Vsi) produced by nitrogen implantation diffuse back to the sample surface upon annealing. But the N-Vsi and the O-Vsi complete with each other and give a summed effect on positron annihilation characteristics. It is shown that the N-Vsi win out the O-Vsi in as-implanted sample and by RTP at 650 °C, 750 °C, which make the S-parameter increase; O-Vsi plays a dominant role after annealing above 850 °C, which makes the S parameter decrease.     

A Molecular Thermometer Based on the Delayed Fluorescence of C70 Dispersed in a Polystyrene Film

A new optical molecular thermometer, based on the thermally activated delayed fluorescence of C₇₀ dispersed in a polystyrene film, was developed. In the presence of oxygen, the fluorescence intensity of the C₇₀ film is essentially temperature independent in a wide range. In the absence of oxygen, however, the fluorescence intensity markedly increases with temperature. At room temperature (25°C), and after degassing the sample, the fluorescence intensity of C₇₀ increases 22 times, while at 100°C the fluorescence intensity is increased by 70 times. With our system, the very weak fluorescence of C₇₀ (Φ_F ≅ 5 × 10⁻⁴, in toluene) can be increased up to 91 times (up to an estimated maximum value Φ_F = 0.046). The estimate value of the singlet-triplet gap (29 kJ mol⁻¹) and the fluorescence lifetime (0.63 ns) of the C₇₀ in film are in agreement with the values reported in the literature for C₇₀ in solution. The values of the phosphorescence lifetime at room temperature (23 ms) and the quantum yield of triplet formation (0.989) were also determined. The system is completely reversible with respect to heating-cooling cycles.     

An Efficient Fluorescence “Turn-On” Chemosensor Comprising of Coumarin and Rhodamine Moieties for Al<Superscript>3+</Superscript> and Hg<Superscript>2+</Superscript>

A potent fluorescence ‘turn-on’ receptor (HL) based on rhodamine and coumarin moieties for the detection of Hg²⁺ and Al³⁺ is synthesized by condensation of rhodamine 6G hydrazide and 4-hydroxy-3-acetylcoumarin. In presence of Al³⁺ and/or Hg²⁺ the receptor (HL) exhibits deep pink colouration and a sharp band at 528 nm is appeared in UV–vis titration. Upon gradual addition of Al³⁺ and/or Hg²⁺ to the solution of HL significant enhancement of fluorescence intensity is observed at 564 nm in MeCN:H₂O (1:5, v/v) medium. The receptor is strongly bound to Al³⁺ and/or Hg²⁺ and the association constants (K_a) are found to be 1.74?×?10⁴ and 1.04?×?10⁴ M^??1 for Al³⁺ and Hg²⁺ respectively.

Enhanced fluorescence of Tb(III), Dy(III) perchlorate by salicylic acid in bis(benzoylmethyl) sulfoxide complexes and luminescence mechanism

Two novel ternary rare earth perchlorate complexes had been synthesized by using bis(benzoylmethyl) sulfoxide as first ligand (L=C₆H₅COCH₂SOCH₂COC₆H₅), salicylic acid as second ligand (L^′=C₆H₄OHCOO⁻). The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, TG-DSC and molar conductivities in DMF solution. The composition was suggested as [REL₅L′](ClO₄)₂·nH₂O (RE=Tb, Dy; n=6, 8 ). Based on IR, ¹HNMR and UV spectra, it showed that the first ligand, bis(benzoylmethyl) sulfoxide (L), bonded with Tb(III), Dy(III) ions by the oxygen atom of sulfinyl group. The second ligand, salicylic acid group (L′), not only bonded with RE(III) ions by one oxygen atom of carboxyl group but also bonded with RE(III) ions by oxygen atom of phenolic hydroxyl group. In bis(benzoylmethyl) sulfoxide system, fluorescent spectra of the complexes showed that the luminescence of Tb(III), Dy(III) ions was enhanced by the second ligand salicylic acid. The ternary complexes had stronger fluorescence than the binary ones where only bis(benzoylmethyl) sulfoxide acted as ligand. Phosphorescent spectra of the two ligands indicated that the coordination of salicylic acid resulted in the matching extent increasing between the triplet state of ligand and excited state of the rare earths. The relationship between fluorescence lifetime and fluorescence intensity was also discussed.     

Thermal stability and spectroscopic properties of Er-doped lead fluorogermanate glasses

The thermal characterization and spectroscopic properties of Er³⁺-doped 0.6GeO₂-(0.4-x)PbO-xPbF₂ glasses were investigated experimentally. With the replacement of PbO by PbF₂ the thermal stability of glasses is improved and the infrared fluorescence intensity at 1530 nm is increased. The Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters, radiative transition rates, and fluorescence lifetimes of the excited ⁴I_13/2 level of Er³⁺ ions were calculated from Judd-Ofelt theory. The asymmetric ligand field around Er³⁺ ions resulted from the incorporation of PbF₂ into germanate glasses, broadens the infrared emission spectra at 1530 nm. Upconversion luminescence in the investigated glasses was observed at room temperature under the excitation of 976 nm laser diode. The glass 0.6GeO₂-0.3PbO-0.1PbF₂ exhibits the maximum upconversion emission intensity, while no frequency upconversion luminescence was observed in the 0.6GeO₂-0.4PbO glass. The quadratic dependence of the green and red emissions on excitation power indicates that two-photon absorption contributes to the visible emission under the 976-nm excitation.     

Solid Substrate-Room Temperature Phosphorescence Method for the Determination of Trace Mn(II) Based on Oxidizing Reaction of Hydrogen Peroxide Using α,α′-Bipyridine as Sensitizer

A new solid substrate-room temperature phosphorescence (SS-RTP) method for the determination of trace manganese (II) has been established. It bases on the fact that fullerol (R) emits strong and stable room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) on filter paper substrate. H₂O₂ can oxidize R to cause the SS-RTP quenching. But manganese (II) can obstruct H₂O₂ to oxidize R, and enhance the RTP of R. α,α′-Bipyridine (Bipy) can sensitize the RTP. After adding Bipy, the ΔI _p enhances 7 times than that without Bipy. Under the optimum conditions, the linear dynamic range of this method is 0.016–1.12 pg spot⁻¹ with a detection limit (L.D.) of 4.6 fg spot⁻¹ ( is the absolute mass of Mn²⁺), and the regression equation of working curve is ΔI _p=25.20 + 63.55 (pg spot⁻¹), n=6, r=0.9983. For 0.016 and 1.12 pg spot⁻¹ Mn²⁺, RSDS are 4.3 and 4.8%, respectively (n=7). This method has been applied to the determination of trace manganese (II) in actual sample with high sensitivity and good selection. And the reaction mechanism of SS-RTP is discussed.     

Energy migration toward a dye in nanoparticles from complexes with short fluorescent state lifetimes

We have studied regular features of the fluorescence sensitization (cofluorescence) of coumarin 30 and rhodamine 6G introduced into nanoparticles from complexes Ln(PhBTA)₃phen, where PhBTA is p-phenylbenzoyltrifluoroacetone and Ln is a triply charged Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Er, or Yb ion, which absorbs in the fluorescence range of ligands of complexes and dyes. We show that both the cofluorescence intensities (I _cofl) of rhodamine 6G in nanoparticles from Sm and Eu complexes and the behavior of intensity I _cofl on the content of rhodamine 6G coincide with the corresponding data obtained for nanoparticles from La and Lu complexes doped with rhodamine 6G molecules. A considerable decrease in I _cofl of rhodamine 6G is observed only in nanoparticles from complexes Nd(PhBTA)₃phen. In nanoparticles from Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Er, and Yb complexes doped with coumarin 30, it has been observed that, depending on the choice of the central ion, I _cofl of coumarin 30 is 2 to 80 times lower compared to I _cofl of the dye in nanoparticles from La and Lu complexes. A separate analysis of the influence of these ions on the energy transfer from complexes to coumarin 30 and on the fluorescence intensity of coumarin 30 incorporated into nanoparticles from these ions showed that a decrease in I _cofl of coumarin 30 by a factor of 2?C20 occurs due to the reduction of ??_fl of ligands of complexes under the influence of the interaction with Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Er, and Yb ions. Since ??_fl of complexes La(PhBTA)3phen is ??2 ps, while that of complexes Gd(PhBTA)3phen is ??1 ps, then, in nanoparticles with a maximal decrease in I _cofl of coumarin 30, ??_fl of complexes is reduced to ??0.1 ps. It has been found that, in nanoparticles from complexes with this ??_fl, energy migration over complexes takes place. However, as distinct from nanoparticles from La, Lu, and Y complexes, the free path length of singlet excitons in nanoparticles from complexes of absorbing ions is smaller than the nanoparticle size.     

Determination of Trace Bismuth by a Solid Substrate Room Temperature Phosphorescence Quenching Method Based on Anionic Polymeric Acryclic Acid Lead Particles Containing Luminescent Eosine Molecules

Abstract

Luminescent particles of Anionic Polymeric Acryclic Acid Lead (Pb(PAA)₂) which containing eosine(HFInBr₄), Eosine nanomicroball of anionic polypropylene acid lead contained luminophores (short for E.N.PAA.L.C.L), were synthesized by a sol‐gel method, using anionic polymeric acryclic acid sodium (PAANa) as the precursor and Pb²⁺ as the precipitant. NH₄Ac‐HAc can react with the Pb²⁺ in E.N.PAA.L.C.L, causing it to decompose into aqueous soluble components. E.N.PAA.L.C.L‐ NH₄Ac‐HAc can emit strong and stable solid substrate room temperature phosphorescence (SS‐RTP) on filter paper, and bismuth, mercury or iodine can cause a decrease in phosphorescence intensity. Based on the facts above, a new method for the determination of trace bismuth by an SS‐RTP quenching method was established. The linear range of this method was 0.01–0.20(pg spot^?1) (4.0×10^?12 g ml^?1) of Bi³⁺, with a detection limit (LD) of 0.0016 pg spot^?1, and the regression equation of the working curve was ΔIp=61.01+237.8 m_Bi3+ (pg spot^?1), r=0.9992. This method was applied to the determination of trace bismuth in human hair and well water samples with satisfactory results. The mechanism of SS‐RTP emission was also discussed.
