Optical determination of thallium(I) and cesium(I) with a fluorogenic calix[4]arenebis(crown-6 ether) containing one pendent dansyl group.
A fluorogenic derivative of 1,3-alternate calix[4]arenebis(crown-6) (1) containing a dansyl group in the proton-ionizable side arm has been employed in selective sensing of Tl+ and Cs+ at low concentration levels in MeCN-H2O (1:1) mixed solvent. Optical recognition of these two metal cations by 1 occurs in contrasting modes. On the basis of the results of fluorescence, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), and 1H NMR studies, Tl+ and Cs+ react with 1 via formation of 1:1 complexes that differ in coordination arrangement around the metal ion.
