Abstract

A new bis(rhodamine) B hydrazone L, bearing two rhodamine chromophores, has been designed and synthesised in 70 % yield. The chemical structure of the new ligand L was characterised using different spectroscopic techniques. The receptor L was utilised for rapid ‘naked eye’ detection of Fe3+, Bi3+, Cu2+, and Hg2+ in THF–H2O (1 : 1, v/v) by displaying significant colour changes. The mechanism of detection of metal ions was based on the ring-opening of the spirolactam rings of L upon recognition. UV/Vis spectrometry was employed to investigate L–metal ion interactions in THF–H2O (1 : 1, v/v). The stoichiometries of the complexes were determined using Job’s method, which revealed 1 : 2 L–metal ion stoichiometries in the case of L–(Fe3+/Bi3+/Hg2+) complexes, while a 1 : 1 L–metal ion stoichiometry was recognised for the L–Cu2+ complex. 1H NMR spectroscopy was applied to study the L–metal ion interactions in DMSO-d6 and results are presented.
