In this study, we synthesized 3-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)-2-hydroxy-5-methyl-benzaldehyde (HBIA) from 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzimidazole (HBI) and three Schiff bases from substituted amino benzoic acids. We investigated the photophysical properties of these compounds and found that their emission in the solid state is different due to the hydrogen bonding in their molecular structures. We also demonstrated that H(2)BIo, H(3)BIdm, and H(2)BIp can selectively detect Cu2+ in semi-aqueous medium.
Herein, we have utilized 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzimidazole (HBI) to synthesize 3-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)-2-hydroxy-5-methyl-benzaldehyde (HBIA) followed by three Schiff bases by using -ortho (H(2)BIo), -meta (H(3)BIdm) and -para (H(2)BIp) substituted amino benzoic acids and studied their photophysical properties. We have successfully derived molecular structures of HBI, HBIA and H(3)BIdm which reveals that in HBI and HBIA, the phenolic -OH is intramolecularly hydrogen bonded with sp(2) N of benzimidazole group whereas in H(3)BIdm, it is hydrogen bonded with imine C=N of Schiff base moiety, which is responsible for different solid state emission properties of the reported compounds. Extensive experimental and theoretical studies show that for all three Schiff bases, in solution due to activation of C=N isomerization, ESIPT operates through benzimidazole site and displays different emission from the solid state. Furthermore, H(2)BIo, H(3)BIdm and H(2)BIp selectively sense Cu2+ in semi aqueous medium with nano-molar detection limit and in HuH-7 cells through the inhibition of ESIPT of process.
