High selectivity and sensitivity detection of fluoride anions (F) in an organic solution by the naked eye has always been a challenge. In this investigation, a simple compound based on aminobenzodifuranone (ABDF) was designed and synthesized. Deprotonation of the amino moiety caused by F is responsible for a color change from dark blue to various colors (colorless, yellow, orange, and red) in different common organic solvents due to a blue shift over 200 nm in the UV/Vis spectrum. The color change is quite visible to the naked eye under ambient light. The detection limit for F can reach a concentration of as low as 5.0 × 10 M with high selectivity, even in a solution containing multiple anions.
通过肉眼对有机溶液中的氟阴离子(F⁻)进行高选择性和高灵敏度检测一直是一项挑战。在本研究中,设计并合成了一种基于氨基苯并二呋喃酮(ABDF)的简单化合物。F⁻导致氨基部分去质子化,由于紫外/可见光谱中超过200 nm的蓝移,在不同的常见有机溶剂中会引起颜色从深蓝色变为各种颜色(无色、黄色、橙色和红色)。在环境光下,这种颜色变化肉眼清晰可见。即使在含有多种阴离子的溶液中,F⁻的检测限也能达到低至5.0×10⁻⁶ M的浓度,且具有高选择性。
