چکیده

A series of four spiropyrans bearing different substituents on the indolic nitrogen were synthesized and their capability of binding mono and bivalent transition metal cations in solution was assessed via UV-visible absorption spectroscopy. All the compounds responded selectively to the presence of Cu(ii) ions producing intense absorption bands in the visible region of their spectra. Bidimensional (1)H-NMR and MALDI-TOF MS spectroscopies revealed the formation of SP dimers mediated by Cu(ii). This is the first example of cross-coupling mediated by copper(ii) in mild conditions causing the symmetric dimerization of spiropyran dyes.

Tuning Sensory Properties of Triazole-Conjugated Spiropyrans: Metal-Ion Selectivity and Paper-Based Colorimetric Detection of Cyanide

Tuning the sensing properties of spiropyrans (SPs), which are one of the photochromic molecules useful for colorimetric sensing, is important for efficient analysis, but their synthetic modification is not always simple. Herein, we introduce an alkyne-functionalized SP, the modification of which would be easily achieved via Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition ("click reaction"). The alkyne-...

STUDIES OF TRANSITION METAL COMPLEXES WITH 2N-QUINOLYL- AND 2N-ISOQUINOLYL- 1,1,3,3-TETRAMETHY LGUANIDINES

Ligands derived from 8-quinoline, 6-quinoline, 1 -isoquinoline, and 5-isoquinoline were synthesized. These compounds have been used as ligands for complexation of transition metals, such as copper(II) and nickel(II). According to the spectrosocopic data, copper(II) cation forms (I: 1) and (I:2) complexes with 2-(8-quinoly1)-l,l,3,3- tetramethylguanidine and 2- (I '-isoquinoly1)- 1,1,3,3-tetr...
