Benzimidazole Derivatives: Selective Fluorescent Chemosensors for the Picogram Detection of Picric Acid
2014
1,3,5-Tri(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)benzene derivatives, as a new kind of fluorescent chemosensor for the detection of nitroaromatic explosives, are designed and synthesized by simple N-hydrocarbylation. Among 16 obtained compounds, compound 4g has the best capability for detection of picric acid (PA), having good selectivity and high sensitivity. The detection of PA with 4g solution-coated paper strips at the picogram level is developed. A simple, portable, and low-cost method is provided for detecting PA in solution and contact mode.
