Abstract
A novel (1E,2Z)-2-(((E)-2-hydroxybenzylidene)hydrazono)-1,2-diphenylethan-1-one oxime (HHDO, 4) has been synthesized by condensation reaction of 2-hydrazono-1,2-diphenylethan-1-one oxime (2) and 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (3) and characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectrum (MS). HHDO displays high selectivity and sensitivity towards Cu2+ ions. Sensing property for Cu2+ is studied by UV–visible, fluorescence spectrophotometric analyses, along with Job's plot analysis. The result shows that the stoichiometric ratio of the complex formed by HHDO and Cu2+ is 1:1. HHDO exhibits an excellent selectivity to Cu2+ over other examined metal ions by showing an intense color change from colorless to crimson yellow under visible light. The binding behavior of the ligand towards Cu2+ ions is described by the infrared spectrum analysis. In addition, the developed sensing probe HHDO exhibits a limit of detection of 2.66 × 10−5 M, and a limit of quantitation of 8.89 × 10−5 M in the linear range 0.75–7.0 × 10−6 M with a good association affinity of 8.26 × 106 M−1 for Cu2+ ions. Additionally, HHDO could be applied as a naked-eye colorimetric kit for Cu2+ ions.
期刊介绍:
Polyhedron publishes original, fundamental, experimental and theoretical work of the highest quality in all the major areas of inorganic chemistry. This includes synthetic chemistry, coordination chemistry, organometallic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and solid-state and materials chemistry.
Papers should be significant pieces of work, and all new compounds must be appropriately characterized. The inclusion of single-crystal X-ray structural data is strongly encouraged, but papers reporting only the X-ray structure determination of a single compound will usually not be considered. Papers on solid-state or materials chemistry will be expected to have a significant molecular chemistry component (such as the synthesis and characterization of the molecular precursors and/or a systematic study of the use of different precursors or reaction conditions) or demonstrate a cutting-edge application (for example inorganic materials for energy applications). Papers dealing only with stability constants are not considered.
