Fluoride Ion-Triggered Dual Fluorescence Switch Based on Naphthalimides Winged Zinc Porphyrin

Abstract: A novel fluoride ion-triggered dual fluorescence molecular switch based on naphthalimides winged zinc porphyrin (1) was designed and prepared. The fluorescence of the zinc porphyrin unit could be regulated "ON-OFF" on the excitation of 365 nm and "OFF-ON" on the excitation of 504 nm, respectively, in the presence of fluoride ion. The obvious color changes induced by the intermolecular proton transfer on N-H fragments are clearly visible to the naked eye.

“…Further utilising this deprotonation mechanism, Tian et al 64 have also covalently attached two 4-amido-1,8-naphthalimide fluorophores to a zinc porphyrin core resulting in a novel F À ion triggered dual fluorescent molecular switch, 22. The absorption spectrum of 22 consisted of a naphthalimide absorption at ca.…”

“…[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Their excited states are characterized by a "push-pull" internal charge transfer (ICT) character, arising from the presence of the electron-withdrawing imide and the electron donating amino moiety; this being strongest where the amino group is in the 4-position of the ring. 9,[15][16][17][18][19] Because of this they have also been employed as potential cellular imaging and antitumor agents. 20 In this context, we have also reported development of DNA photocleavage agents based on 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide conjugated with ruthenium(II) complex, 19 and we have prepared Tröger's base derivatives of the 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide structure and shown these to be efficient DNA binders, and cytotoxic agents.…”

“…And some of them have been used as fluorescent chemosensors for metal cations, [14][15][16][17] anions 18,19 and pH [20][21][22][23] in recent years. These make naphthalimide derivatives potential carriers for preparation of new optical chemosensors.…”
