We have designed two heterocyclic compounds for the colorimetric detection of cyanide. The skeleton of both molecules fuses a benzooxazine ring to an indoline fragment and can be assembled efficiently in three synthetic steps starting from commercial precursors. The two Compounds differ in the nature of the substituent on the carbon atom at the junction of the fused heterocycles, which can be either a methyl or a phenyl group. In the presence of cyanide, both molecules are converted quantitatively into cyanoamines with the concomitant appearance of an intense band in the visible region of the absorption spectrum. The developing absorption is a result of the opening of the benzooxazine ring with the formation of a 4-nitrophenyl azophenolate chromophore. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and X-ray crystallographic analyses demonstrate that the covalent attachment of a cyanide anion to the indoline fragment is responsible for these transformations. The chromogenic process is particularly fast for the methylsubstituted oxazine and can be exploited to detect micromolar concentrations of cyanide in water. Furthermore, the colorimetric response of this compound to cyanide does not suffer the interference of the halide anions, which instead are known to complicate the detection of cyanide in conventional sensing protocols. Thus, our mechanism and compounds for the colorimetric identification of cyanide can lead to the development of practical strategies for the convenient determination of this toxic anion in aqueous environments.
