Item Multi-signaling thiocarbohydrazide based colorimetric sensors for the selective recognition of heavy metal ions in an aqueous medium(Elsevier B.V., 2017) Momidi, B.K.; Tekuri, V.; Trivedi, D.R.A series of colorimetric chemosensors R1–R6 have been developed from thiocarbohydrazide derivatives, for the selective detection of heavy metal ions. The structures of the receptors R1–R6 were well characterized by standard spectroscopic techniques like FT-IR, 1H NMR, and ESI-MS. The solid structure of receptor R1 and R2 were derived by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD). The cation reorganization abilities of receptors R1–R6 were studied by UV–Vis spectroscopy. The receptors R1, R3 and R4 acts as a tremendous sensitive probe for heavy metal ions (Hg2 +, Cd2 + and Pb2 +) with the ?M detection (R1 for Hg2 +, 2.72, R3 for Cd2 +, 3.22, R4 for Hg2 +, Cd2 + & Pb2 +, 0.70, 0.20 & 0.30 ?M) and the receptors R2, R5 & R6 are sensitive towards Cu2 + ions with the ?M detection (3.34, 0.90 & 1.20 ?M) in an aqueous medium among all other tested cations. The receptor R4 shows a multi-color response towards Hg2 +, Cu2 +, Cd2 + and Pb2 + ions. The recognition mechanism, stoichiometric binding ratio and detection limit (DL) have been examined by UV–Visible spectroscopic titration experiments and Benesi-Hildebrand (B-H) plot, receptor R1–R6 sowed 1:1 binding ratio with good binding constant range of 103 to 105 M? 1 with Hg2 +, Cu2 +, Cd2 + and Pb2 + ions metal ions. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.Item Colorimetric anion sensors based on positional effect of nitro group for recognition of biologically relevant anions in organic and aqueous medium, insight real-life application and DFT studies(Elsevier B.V., 2018) Singh, A.; Sahoo, S.K.; Trivedi, D.R.A new six colorimetric receptors A1-A6 were designed and synthesized, characterized by typical common spectroscopic techniques like FT-IR, UV–Visible, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and ESI-MS. The receptor A1 and A2 exhibit a significant naked-eye response towards F? and AcO? ions in DMSO. Due to presences of the NO2 group at para and ortho position with extended ?-conjugation of naphthyl group carrying –OH as a binding site. Compared to receptor A2, A1 is extremely capable of detecting F? and AcO? ions present in the form of sodium salts in an aqueous medium. This is owed to the occurrence of –NO2 group at para position induced in increasing the acidity of –OH proton. Consequently, it easily gets deprotonated in aqueous media. The detection limit of receptor A1 was turned out to be 0.40 and 0.35 ppm for F? and AcO? ions which is beneath WHO permission level (1.0 ppm). Receptor A1 shows a solitary property of solvatochromism in different aprotic solvents in presence of AcO? ion. Receptor A1 depicts high selectivity towards AcO? ion in DMSO: HEPES buffer (9:1, v/v). Receptor A1 proved itself for real life application by detecting anion in solution and solid state. The binding mechanism of receptor A1 with AcO? and F? ions was monitored from 1HNMR titration and DFT study. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.Item Hydrazinylpyridine based highly selective optical sensor for aqueous source of carbonate ions: Electrochemical and DFT studies(Elsevier B.V., 2018) Thimaradka, V.; Pangannaya, S.; Mohan, M.; Trivedi, D.R.A series of new receptors PDZ1–3 based on 2-(arylidenehydrazinyl)pyridines have been designed and synthesized for the detection of biologically and environmentally important ions. The colorimetric detection of CO32 ? using neutral organic receptor PDZ-1 has been achieved with characteristic visual colour change from yellow to green accompanied by a large redshift of 215 nm in absorption maxima. UV–Vis spectroscopic and cyclic voltammetric studies reveal the stoichiometry of binding and electrochemistry of host-guest complex formation. The binding constant was found to be 0.77 × 104 M? 2. In addition, electrochemical studies provide an insight into the stability of the complex. DFT studies performed on the PDZ-1 and PDZ-1 ? CO32 ? complex reveal the binding mechanism involved in the anion detection process. PDZ-1 is highly selective for carbonate and does not show any colorimetric response towards any other anions or cations, while PDZ-2 and PDZ-3 remain inactive in the ion detection process. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of PDZ-1 for carbonate was found to be 0.11 mM and 0.36 mM respectively. Considerable binding constant and limit of detection make PDZ-1 to be used as a real time sensor for the detection of carbonate in environmental and biological samples. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.
