A fluorescent chemosensor based on dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde-aminothiourea (DA) has been designed, synthesized, and applied with a combined theoretical and experimental study. The synthetic path, optimized molecular structure and characteristics of DA were carried out using the calculations at the B3LYP/LanL2DZ level of theory. The experimental investigations have a good agreement with the theoretical results. DA can be used as a chemosensor for simultaneous quantification of silver, copper, and mercury ions in aqueous solution at the ppb level. The stable geometric structures of the complexes between DA and Ag+, Hg2+, Cu2+ with stoichiometry of 1:1, 2:1, and 2:1, have been found and investigated for electronic properties and fluorescence quenching phenomena by using Atoms in Molecules (AIM) and Natural Bond Orbitals (NBO) analyses.
