The development of simple, environmental friendly, and cheap reagents with metal binding properties are quite important not only for the treatment of environmental pollution but also for their application in medicine. Within this study, for the first time, we displayed a natural chromen analogue, Urolithin B, as a simple, selective, fluorescent iron (III) sensing probe. Following the synthesis and structure identification studies, the selective metal binding property of the compound was displayed employing fluorescence techniques. Accordingly, urolithin B has the capacity to coordinate selectively to iron (III) with a 3:2 stoichiometry.
开发具有金属结合特性的简单、环保且廉价的试剂不仅对环境污染治理很重要,而且对其在医学中的应用也很重要。在本研究中,我们首次展示了一种天然色烯类似物——尿石素B,作为一种简单、选择性的荧光铁(III)传感探针。在进行合成和结构鉴定研究之后,利用荧光技术展示了该化合物的选择性金属结合特性。据此,尿石素B能够以3:2的化学计量比选择性地与铁(III)配位。
