"Turn-On" Fluorescent Biosensors for High Selective and Sensitive Detection of Al³⁺ Ion.

ABSTRACT: A series of new compounds (1-4) based on pyrrole hydrazone Schiff bases were designed and synthesized. The interactions of these new compounds with metal ions and their fluorescent recognition were investigated. All compounds showed "turn-on" fluorescence in the presence of Al³⁺ in aqueous solution. Their sensing behaviors with Al³⁺ were studied using photophysical experiments, ESI-MS spectrometry analysis, ¹H NMR titration, and DFT calculation. The detection limits of 1-4 for the analysis of Al³⁺ were found to reach a 10^-8 M level in aqueous solution, which are far lower than the WHO guidelines for drinking water (7.41 mM for Al³⁺). A high selectivity test paper has been fabricated for Al³⁺ detection based on sensor 3. Theoretical calculations (DFT) have been carried out to elucidate the configuration of 1-4 and their Al complexes and rationalize experimental absorption data.

Project description:Aluminum is a kind of metal that we often encounter. It can also be absorbed by the human body invisibly and will affect our bodies to a certain extent, e.g., by causing symptoms associated with Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, the detection of aluminum is particularly important. The methods to detect metal ions include precipitation methods and electrochemical methods, which are cumbersome and costly. Fluorescence detection is a fast and sensitive method with a low cost and non-toxicity. Traditional fluorescent nanomaterials have a high cost, high toxicity, and cause harm to the human body. Graphene quantum dots are a new type of fluorescent nanomaterials with a low cost and non-toxicity that can compensate for the defects of traditional fluorescent nanomaterials. In this paper, c-GQDs and o-GQDs with good performance were prepared by a bottom-up hydrothermal method using o-phenylenediamine as a precursor and citric acid or boric acid as modulators. They have very good optical properties: o-GQDs exhibit orange fluorescence under UV irradiation, while c-GQDs exhibits cyan fluorescence. Then, different metal ions were used for ion detection, and it was found that Al3+ had a good quenching effect on the fluorescence of the o-GQDs. The reason for this phenomenon may be related to the strong binding of Al3+ ions to the N and O functional groups of the o-GQDs and the rapid chelation kinetics. During the chelation process, the separation of o-GQDs' photoexcited electron hole pairs leads to their rapid electron transfer to Al3+, in turn leading to the occurrence of a fluorescence-quenching phenomenon. In addition, there was a good linear relationship between the concentration of the Al3+ ions and the fluorescence intensity, and the correlation coefficient of the linear regression equation was 0.9937. This illustrates the potential for the wide application of GQDs in sensing systems, while also demonstrating that Al3+ sensors can be used to detect Al3+ ions.
