2-(4,5-Dimethyl-1-m-tolyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)phenol as Efficient Chemosensor for On–Off Fluorescence System: Catalytic Synthesis and NMR Spectral Studies
An efficient chemosensor 2-(4,5-dimethyl-1- m -tolyl-1 H -imidazol-2-yl)phenol (DMTP) has been designed and synthesized using nano SiO 2 as catalyst. Nano SiO 2 exhibited remarkable catalytic activity with respect to the reaction time, amount of catalyst and vast range of substrates usage. Synthesiz...

Zusammenfassung: | An efficient chemosensor 2-(4,5-dimethyl-1-

-tolyl-1
H
-imidazol-2-yl)phenol (DMTP) has been designed and synthesized using nano SiO
2
as catalyst. Nano SiO
2
exhibited remarkable catalytic activity with respect to the reaction time, amount of catalyst and vast range of substrates usage. Synthesized compounds have been characterized by

H and

C-NMR spectral studies. Proton and
13
C chemical shift of the synthesized compounds have been calculated. DMTP has been used to construct highly sensitive fluorescent chemosensor for sensing of metal ions. It can behave as a selective fluorescent sensor for the detection of Fe
3+
metal ion. Addition and increasing concentration of Fe
3+
ions into DMTP results excellent fluorescence quenching. Other cations, including Ca

, Al

, K

, Cd

, Pb

, Zn

and Mg

had little influence in the fluorescence intensity. Surprisingly reversible fluorescence enhancement has been observed with the addition of H

due to the deactivation of iron complex. |
