Abstract: | A novel Schiff base fluorescent sensor N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-2,6-bis(4-aminophenyl)-4-phenylpyridine (P3) was synthesized through condensation of 2,6-bis(4-aminophenyl)-4-phenylpyridine and 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde. The obtained results from fluorescence analysis revealed that by excess of Cr3+ to P3, a remarkable increase was observed in the fluorescent intensity of the Schiff base at 663?nm with the ratio of CH3CN/H2O (95/5%), even though the other cations would likely have no impact on the fluorescence intensity. The cause of this trend might be ascribed to the formation of a 1:1 stoichiometric P3-Cr3+ complex, confirmed by Job's plot, which is resulted in preventing the photo-induced electron transfer (PET) process. From fluorescence titration, the association constant Ka was gained 2.28?×?105?M?1 and the limit of detection (LOD) was determined to be 1.3?×?10?7?M. Furthermore, the optimized structure together with the electronic spectra of the proposed complex was determined by DFT and TDDFT calculations. |
