Synthesis Binding and Fluorescence Studies of Bis-2-amidopyrrole Receptors for Bis-carboxylate Anions

摘要

The ditopic neutral receptors >1 and >2 were synthesized for the recognition and sensing of bis-carboxylates. They are based on pyrrole and amide groups as hydrogen-bond donors to bind the oxoanions of the guests. Among the obtained results, the selectivity for glutarate over succinate is particularly interesting. Compound >1 behaves as a PET fluorescence sensor for glutarate.
