Two fluorescence sensors with phthalic acid recognition groups were designed and synthesized, and it was found that NAC2 exhibited better performance in detecting Mn2+ and Zn2+. NAC2 also showed potential in practical sample analysis.
Building fluorescence sensors with intelligent performance on detecting target substrate in our living environment is of great significance. Two 1,8-naphthalimide fluorescence sensors with vice like phthalic acid recognition groups (NAC1, NAC2) were designed and synthesized via a facile method. The photophysical properties of the two compounds were investigated and compared. The research on structure-performance difference showed that NAC2, containing a n-dodecylamino group at the 4-position of the 1,8-naphthalimide moiety, had better fluorescence turn-off performance to Mn2+ and Zn2+. DFT calculations were applied to verify the results. NAC2 can detect the two kinds of metal ions within 1 min, and the detection limit was respectively determined to be 0.040 mg/L (for Mn2+), 0.085 mg/L (for Zn2+). NAC2 was also applied in the practical sample analysis, indicating that it is a potential visualization tool in environmental monitoring.
