title: Pyrene Based Chemosensor for Selective Sensing of Fluoride in Aprotic and Protic Environment.
abstract: A new aromatic hydrazone based on pyrene-1-aldehyde was synthesized and characterized by (1)H NMR and mass spectrometric analyses. The sensing properties of the hydrazone were studied by absorption and fluorescence studies in the aprotic solvent DMSO. It was capable of visual and fluorescent detection of fluoride over competitive ions (Cl(-), Br(-), H2PO4 (-), AcO(-)). Moreover, the in-situ prepared iron(III) complex of the hydrazone was investigated as a turn off fluorescent fluoride sensor in aqueous medium by displacement mechanism.
