Popis: |
The water sensing properties of two efficient two-component fluorescent “turn-on” chemo-sensors based on the 7-dialkylaminocoumarin oxime acid-base equilibrium were investigated. Interestingly, although simple frontier orbital analysis predicts an intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer quenching pathway in conjugated oximates, TD-DFT (Time-dependent density functional theory) quantum chemical calculations support non-radiative dark S1 excited state deactivation as a fluorescence quenching mechanism. Due to the acid-base sensing mechanism and sensitive “turn-on” fluorescent response, both studied coumarin aldoxime chemosensors exhibit rapid response to low-level water content in polar aprotic solvents, with detection limits comparable to chemodosimeters or chemosensors based on interpolymer π-stacking aggregation. |
