Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, heavy metal ion pollution is one of the most serious environmental problems, posing a significant threat to the survival of organisms. For example, Cr(VI) and its dichromate ions (Cr₂O₇) are particularly problematic. 2- Anions such as Cr(VI) are widely used in chemical engineering fields such as metallurgy, metal electroplating, and pigments, while Cr(VI) is characterized by high toxicity and carcinogenicity. Furthermore, due to the presence of dichromates (Cr2O7... 2- Cr(VI) is the most common source of Cr, therefore, a method for efficiently binding Cr2O7 is being developed. 2- A novel host to improve Cr2O7 2- The detection sensitivity and selectivity of macrocyclic chemistry or its ion pairs are crucial. Notably, the rapid development of macrocyclic chemistry has provided ample opportunities to improve sensing sensitivity and selectivity.

[0003] Novel macrocyclic host molecules have been a research hotspot in supramolecular chemistry due to their wide applications in sensors, self-assembled materials, and molecular machines. To date, many macrocyclic host molecules, including crown ethers, cyclodextrins, calixarenes, cucurbiturils, and columnar aromatics, have been successfully developed and widely used. However, the demand for novel macrocyclic hosts to provide more precise and efficient binding to various target guests to achieve specific functions remains significant. To address this urgent need, the scientific community has made various efforts in different ways, including modifying existing macrocycles and developing new macrocycles to achieve precise binding to target guests. All these methods have their own advantages, and fused bicyclic host molecules can provide two macrocyclic cavities to complex target guests. Furthermore, the two macrocycles of a fused bicyclic host molecule can provide an enrichment effect through the synergistic effect of the two cavities, enabling the binding of more complex guests or the construction of more complex supramolecular functional systems. Therefore, developing a novel fused bicyclic host molecule and studying its host-guest interaction characteristics in depth is very interesting and important.

[0004] This invention designs and synthesizes a novel column-[5]arene-based bicyclic chemical sensor molecule, BPN1. In BPN1, the methoxy group on the column[5]arene column can be Cr2O7. 2- It provides multiple hydrogen bonding sites and is expected to interact with Cr2O7. 2-Complexation occurs. Furthermore, the side ring formed by the flexible chain of a phenyl group of a columnar aromatic hydrocarbon using naphthalimide (NDI) also possesses abundant supramolecular interaction sites, allowing it to interact with Cr2O7. 2- Therefore, a fused bicyclic host molecule BPN1 can bind multiple Cr2O7 molecules. 2- This is an enrichment effect that can improve the detection of Cr2O7. 2- Sensitivity. Summary of the Invention

[0007] I. Bicyclic Chemical Sensor BPN1 and its Synthesis

[0008] The synthesis method of the bicyclic chemical sensor BPN1 of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0009] (1) Synthesis of ethyl thioethyl functionalized column[5] aromatic BAP: K2CO3 and ethyl mercaptoethyl were added to the acetonitrile solution of KI in the bromo[5] aromatic column. Under nitrogen protection, the reaction was carried out at 65~75℃ for 20~25h. The crude product was obtained by drying and volatilization, and pure ethyl thioethyl functionalized column[5] aromatic BAP was obtained by column chromatography.

[0010] The molar ratio of ethyl mercaptoacetate to brominated[5]arene is 2:1; the molar ratio of K2CO3 to ethyl mercaptoacetate is 1:1 to 1:2; and the molar ratio of brominated[5]arene to KI is 1:2 to 1:3.

The solvent was removed, filtered and dried to obtain bis-N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-(hexamyl)acetamide functionalized column[5] aromatics MP5; wherein, the molar volume ratio of ethyl thioacetate functionalized column[5] aromatics to ethylenediamine was 0.5~1 mmol / mL.

[0012] (3) The bis-N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-(hexylthio)acetamide-functionalized column[5]arene was added dropwise to a DMF solution of 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic anhydride, and acetic acid was added to catalyze the reaction. The reaction was carried out at 115~125°C for 45~50 h. The solvent was removed to obtain a brown crude product, which was then recrystallized with dichloromethane to obtain pure column[5]arene-based bicyclic molecule BPN1. The molar ratio of bis-N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-(hexylthio)acetamide-functionalized column[5]arene to 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic anhydride was 1.2:1~1.3:1.

[0017] 1. Fluorescence properties of the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1

[0018] Studies on the fluorescence performance of the bicyclic chemical sensor BPN1 show that it has good solubility in DMSO-H2O solution (DMSO volume percentage 90%). When the excitation wavelength is 360 nm, the sensor molecule BPN1 exhibits good fluorescence (emission wavelength 425 nm).

DMSO V 水 In a 9:1 ratio, 0.1 M of Cr2O7 was added in a 10-fold equivalent (of the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1). 2- An aqueous solution of Cr2O7 was used to observe the fluorescence changes in the solution. The results showed that Cr2O7... 2- The addition of [a specific ion] quenches the fluorescence of the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 in DMSO-H2O solution. Similarly, the addition of other ions (F [a specific ion]) quenches the fluorescence. - , Cl - , Br - , I- NO3 - ClO3 - IO3 - SO4 2- CO3 2- ClO4 - MnO4 2- SCN - CrO4 2- AsO2 - H2AsO4 - The fluorescence of the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 in DMSO-H2O solution remained essentially unchanged. Figure 3 The fluorescence spectra (λ) of the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 in the present invention after adding different ions to a DMSO-H2O solution are shown. ex =360 nm). The addition of other ions did not cause a significant change in the fluorescence of the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 in DMSO-H2O solution, indicating that the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 is sensitive to Cr2O7. 2- It has single-selection recognition capabilities.

[0021] Fluorescent titration experiments showed that the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 is effective against Cr2O7. 2- The lowest detection limit is 1.27 × 10⁻⁶. -7 M (as) Figure 5 , 6 As shown in the figure, this illustrates that the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 recognizes Cr2O7. 2- It has high sensitivity.

[0022] Meanwhile, in order to study the effects of other ions on the recognition of Cr2O7 by the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1, 2- To mitigate interference, we conducted an anti-interference experiment. Figure 4 Adding Cr2O7 to the DMSO-H2O solution of the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 2- Based on this, anti-interference maps for different ions were added. The results show that the presence of other ions affects the recognition of Cr2O7 by the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1. 2- No obvious interference (e.g.) Figure 4 (As shown).

[0023] 3. Identification Mechanism Analysis

The high-field shift in the side ring H3 indicates that the naphthalene group on the side ring interacts with Cr2O7. 2- An anion-π interaction occurs, causing the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 to interact with Cr2O7. 2- To form a complex, Cr2O7 was added. 2- Subsequently, the fluorescence of the bicyclic chemical sensor molecule BPN1 was quenched.

[0025] In addition, to visually demonstrate multiple supramolecular interactions, non-covalent interaction maps were obtained using the IGM method. Two guest molecules were treated as fragments, and the host molecule as another fragment, and IGM analysis was performed. The resulting green δg isosurfaces highlight the interaction regions between the corresponding fragments. Figure 8 NCI analysis can provide detail to distinguish different weak non-covalent interactions, such as van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonds, and steric repulsion, and quantitatively describe their strength. These green patches are visualizations of BPN1 and Cr2O7. 2- Interactions between the components, such as anion-π interactions and multiple hydrogen bonds. These results demonstrate that the enrichment effect between the BPN1 bicyclic rings can achieve its enrichment of Cr2O7. 2- The high sensitivity of the identification also proves the feasibility of our proposal to introduce an "enrichment effect" into the design of chemical sensors to enhance host-guest interactions.

[0026] In summary, this invention designs and synthesizes a novel column[5]arene-based bicyclic molecule that can detect dichromate ions with high selectivity and high sensitivity through enrichment effect. The column[5]arene MP5 was functionalized with bis-N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-(hexamyl)acetamide and reacted with 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic anhydride in DMF solution to obtain the column[5]arene-based bicyclic chemical sensor BPN1.
