In this paper, an efficient colorimetric and fluorescent probe based on a benzothiadiazole derivative was developed for the detection of fluoride ions (F-). The selectivity of this approach capitalized on the highly selective and straightforward chemical reaction between F-and the Si-O bond. The sensing behavior of this probe towards anions was monitored by UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopies in acetonitrile-aqueous buffer mixtures. Among the tested anions: F-, Cl-, Br-, I-, ClO4-, NO3-, CN-, HSO4-, AcO- and H2PO4- only F- induced a remarkable red-shift (149 nm) in the absorption spectrum which is concomitant with a color change from colorless to pink. This probe provides a new approach for naked-eyed detection of F- and the detection limit was calculated to be 1.7 mu M. Besides, a concomitant fluorescence decrease was also observed. These results demonstrated that the probe could detect F- with excellent sensitivity and selectivity in complicated samples.
