Problems solved by technology

[0007] Aiming at defects such as the quantum yield points of fluorescent carbon dots currently synthesized, the preparation scheme is too complicated, and the separation and purification are difficult, the present invention proposes a new method for synthesizing chiral fluorescent carbon nanodots in one step, which is green and pollution-free. In this method, select 20 kinds of common amino acids, including different optically active amino acids, are used as activation and functional modification molecules. Using microwave synthesis, chiral fluorescent carbon dots with high fluorescence quantum yield can be obtained in one step.

Embodiment 1

[0029] Example 1, using citric acid as a precursor and L-tryptophan (L-Trp) as an auxiliary reagent to prepare fluorescent carbon dots.

[0030] Step 1: At room temperature, weigh 1g of citric acid, 10mg of L-tryptophan, and 5mL of H 2 O was added to a 25mL glass reaction bottle, and ultrasonic treatment was performed at a working frequency of 40kHz and an ultrasonic power of 200W for 1min to obtain a transparent aqueous solution.

[0031]Step 2: Put the mixed solution obtained in Step 1 into a microwave oven for 4 minutes at a power of 800W, and obtain a brownish-yellow liquid after reaction.

[0032] Step 3: Dialyze the product obtained in Step 2 with a dialysis bag with a molecular weight cut-off of 1000 for 36 hours. During the dialysis process, the ultrapure water should be replaced continuously to remove unreacted citric acid and tryptophan to obtain the fluorescence of the surface amino acid The carbon quantum dots have a fluorescence quantum yield of 19.27%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of nanomaterial science and biomedical engineering, in particular to a green method for synthesizing fluorescent chiral carbon dots, that is, a preparation method for assisting the synthesis of fluorescent carbon dots by using amino acids and their derivatives. Background technique [0002] Carbon nanomaterials, from carbon nanotubes to graphene, have always been a hot research topic because of their unique physical, chemical and optical properties. Carbon dots, as a new type of nano-carbon material, have gradually attracted your attention. Carbon dots, in a broad sense, are defined as: the diameter is generally 2 to 10nm, and after surface passivation, different fluorescence will be emitted, and the emission wavelength can be "tuned", which can realize one-dimensional excitation and multiple emission, and can absorb from visible light to near Infrared light has a large emission wavelength span, a wide Stokes shift,...
