Synthesis, crystal structure and binding properties of a new fluorescent molecular clip based on 2,5-diphenylfuran

摘要

A new fluorescent molecular clip derived from 2,5-diphenyl-furan with two benzo[d]-thiazole-2-thio-units as side walls has been synthesised and its structure and conformation confirmed by an X-ray structure. Fluorescence spectroscopic studies show that it can selectively bind Fe~(3+).
