Abstract
Gold is classified as a heavy metal, and its ion (Au3+) can manifest adverse impacts on ecological and human health. Thus, an effective method for Au3+ detection is highly required. In this work, a new [5]helicene‐based fluorescence sensor (M202P) was synthesized and applied for Au3+ monitoring in near-perfect aqueous media. M202P rapidly detected Au3+ through a fluorescence quenching response and furnished a large Stokes shift of 157 nm. The Au3+ sensing ability of M202P allowed it to withstand interference from other metal ions, with a detection limit for Au3+ of 8.0 ppb. The mechanism underlying its Au3+ detection was the coordination of Au3+ with the alkyne and carbonyl oxygen, leading to the later hydration of alkynyl moiety, as thoroughly proven by FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS, with the stoichiometric ratio of 1:1 according to Job’s plot. In addition, M202P can be used for the quantitative analysis and qualitative fluorescence assay of Au3+ levels in environmental waters and fertilizer solutions. This sensor also demonstrated high potential as a fluorescence tracking agent in human cells and was utilized in fabricating a paper test strip.
期刊介绍:
Spectrochimica Acta, Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy (SAA) is an interdisciplinary journal which spans from basic to applied aspects of optical spectroscopy in chemistry, medicine, biology, and materials science.
The journal publishes original scientific papers that feature high-quality spectroscopic data and analysis. From the broad range of optical spectroscopies, the emphasis is on electronic, vibrational or rotational spectra of molecules, rather than on spectroscopy based on magnetic moments.
Criteria for publication in SAA are novelty, uniqueness, and outstanding quality. Routine applications of spectroscopic techniques and computational methods are not appropriate.
Topics of particular interest of Spectrochimica Acta Part A include, but are not limited to:
Spectroscopy and dynamics of bioanalytical, biomedical, environmental, and atmospheric sciences,
Novel experimental techniques or instrumentation for molecular spectroscopy,
Novel theoretical and computational methods,
Novel applications in photochemistry and photobiology,
Novel interpretational approaches as well as advances in data analysis based on electronic or vibrational spectroscopy.
