A Ni2+ selective chemosensor based on partial cone conformation of calix[4]arene

Dalton Trans. 2010 Nov 14;39(42):10116-21. doi: 10.1039/c0dt00804d. Epub 2010 Oct 4.

Abstract

Synthetic strategies are described to synthesize the calix[4]arene diamine 4 of partial cone (paco) conformation, which on condensation with 9-anthracene carbaldehyde forms the chemosensor 5 in paco conformation. The chemosensor 5 undergoes fluorescence enhancement in the presence of Ni(2+) ions.
