Simple bis-thiocarbono-hydrazones as sensitive, selective, colorimetric, and switch-on fluorescent chemosensors for fluoride anions.

Bis-thiocarbono-hydrazones are found to be a class of sensitive, selective, ratiometric, and colorimetric chemosensors for anions such as fluoride (F(-)) or acetate (Ac(-)). The sensitivities, or the binding constants of the sensors with anions, were found to be strongly dependent on the substituents appended on the pi-conjugation framework, the delocalization bridge CH==N, the aromatic moiety, and the hetero atom in the C==X group (X=O, S) of the sensors. Single-crystal structures and (1)H NMR titration analysis shows that the --CH==N-- moiety is a hydrogen-bond donor, and it is proposed that an additional CHF hydrogen bond is formed for the sensors in the presence F(-). A sensor bearing anthracenyl groups is demonstrated as a switch-on fluorescent chemosensor for F(-) and Ac(-). The recognition of F(-) in acetonitrile (MeCN) by a sensor with nitrophenyl substituents is tolerant to MeOH (MeCN/MeOH=10:1, v/v) and water (MeCN/H(2)O=30:1, v/v); at these solvent ratios the absorption intensity of the sensor-F(-) complex solution at maximal absorption wavelength was attenuated to half of the original value in pure MeCN.
