Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a novel cascaded confined luminescent pseudorotaxane complex for the specific recognition of gold ions. Background Technology
[0002] Gold is a precious metal with a wide range of uses. In the chemical industry, its unique properties and stability make it an indispensable component in many chemical products. Due to its excellent electrical conductivity and chemical stability, gold is also widely used in the manufacture of electronic devices. However, gold is non-biodegradable and accumulates in the environment. Gold can bind tightly to biomolecules such as enzymes and DNA, posing a toxic risk to humans. Furthermore, intermediates and precursors from gold processing, such as Au(I) and Au(III) compounds, are highly reactive and potentially harmful to humans. Trivalent gold (such as gold chloride (AuCl3)) can damage the liver, kidneys, and peripheral nervous system.
[0003] Currently, there are many methods for detecting gold content, including titration, spectrophotometry, electrochemical methods, atomic absorption spectrometry, and fluorescence spectrometry. Titration is based on the fact that gold is usually in a trivalent state, and a reduction reaction is used to convert the trivalent gold ions to a monovalent or zero-valent state. 1) Titration to zero valence: Hydroquinone is usually used as the titrant, and 3',3-dimethylbenzidine or benzidine or their derivatives are used as indicators. 2) Titration to monovalent state: The most representative method is iodometric titration: AuCl4 - +3KI=AuI+I2+3KCl+Cl - The disadvantage of titration is that the determination of the titration endpoint often involves subjective factors of the analyst, which can easily lead to errors and affect the accuracy of the detection. Electrochemical analysis can only detect trace amounts of gold, making it unsuitable for the determination of trace gold ions. Among these methods, fluorescence spectroscopy for gold content detection has attracted widespread attention due to its advantages such as convenience, speed, and low detection limits. Therefore, exploring a low-cost, highly selective method for detecting gold ions that can be performed in an aqueous phase and is suitable for environmental use has become an important research goal. Thus, developing a method specifically for detecting Au in the environment is crucial. 3+ The supramolecular system has great development potential.
[0004] In recent years, pseudorotaxanes containing two or more components have received widespread attention as a typical representative of mechanically interlocked molecules. They are bound by non-covalent forces such as hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions, π-π stacking, ionic dipole interactions, electrostatic interactions, host-guest interactions, and coordination bonds. Pseudorotaxanes contain a linear axis and two or more macrocycles. As a precursor of multifunctional supramolecular materials such as rotaxanes and cyclohexanes, pseudorotaxanes have inherent dynamic potential applications. The most commonly used macrocycle for preparing pseudorotaxanes is cucurbituril[n] (CB[n]), which is composed of different numbers of glycoure units and forms inclusion complexes with organic cationic guests (i.e., ammonium, pyridine, and imidazole cations, etc.), exhibiting high selectivity and bonding ability in aqueous solutions. For example, CB[8] can simultaneously bind two different types of fluorescent guest molecules within its cavity to form a ternary complex. However, most cucurbituril[n] (CB[6] and CB[7], etc.) cavities are too small to accommodate two or more guests simultaneously. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new host-guest recognition modes in cucurbituril[n] with smaller cavities and stronger binding capacity, but this is also quite difficult. In addition, confining guest molecules within the cavity of cucurbituril[n] can significantly alter the acidity, photostability, chemical and physical properties of the guests. From a structural perspective, cucurbituril[n] provides a rigid environment for the encapsulated fluorescent dye molecules, preventing the aggregation of dyes at high concentrations, and can even generate macrocyclic assembly-induced fluorescence. For example, Ni et al. reported a color-tunable pseudopolyrotaxane that, by using different numbers of CB[8] hosts to encapsulate poly(styrene derivatives), achieved color variations from blue to cyan, white, yellow or green, and gave it a long fluorescence lifetime and high fluorescence quantum yield. Compared with primary assembly, the cascade assembly of amphiphilic macrocyclic compounds can improve the hydrophobic microenvironment of the assemblies. Simultaneously, it can co-assemble with drug molecules, dye molecules, and photoresponsive molecules to form nanofibers, nanoparticles, and nanorods, further promoting the luminescence behavior and delivery of the target substance, and enabling applications in targeted drug delivery, bioimaging, and information anti-counterfeiting. Therefore, designing a novel cascaded assembly confined fluorescent pseudorotaxane complex is urgently needed by engineers and scientists in the fields of imaging and recognition. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Fluorescence analysis is relatively accurate for analyzing the types and contents of metal ions in samples, but it may be affected by some interfering factors during the analysis process. Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that gold ions in the environment are difficult to detect and have large errors. It provides a novel cascaded assembly confined luminescent pseudorotaxane complex - cucurbituril[7]-cyclodextrin cascaded assembly supramolecular system and its preparation method; and uses the prepared supramolecular system for specific detection of Au in the environment. 3+ .
[0006] This invention utilizes 4,4',4”,4”'-((6,7,9,10,12,13,20,21,23,24,26,27-dodecahydrodibenzo[b,n][1,4,7,10,13,16,19,22]octaoxacyclotetracosine-2,3,16,17-tetrayl)tetrakis(benzene-4,1-diyl))tetrakis(1-((2-oxo-2H-chromen-6-yl)methyl)pyridin-1-ium)bromide(G), CB[7], and sulfobutyl-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD) to construct the first CB[7]-mediated molecular slip and cascade assembly pseudo[5] rotaxane supramolecular complex in aqueous solution. This assembly exhibits Au resistance in aqueous solution and solid PVA membrane. 3+ It exhibits a specific fluorescence quenching effect.
[0007] Based on the host-guest interactions and electrostatic interactions of G, CB[7], and SBE-β-CD, this invention successfully prepared a cascaded assembly fluorescence-enhanced supramolecular complex with green fluorescence and tunable morphology. Due to the strong confinement effect of CB[7], primary assembly increased the fluorescence intensity of G by 53 times, and the fluorescence lifetime significantly increased from 0.65 ns to 3.76 ns. Subsequent secondary assembly with SBE-β-CD further blue-shifted the fluorescence wavelength from 530 nm to 515 nm, increasing the intensity by 9.9 times, but without a significant increase in fluorescence lifetime. It is noteworthy that in… In the middle, Au 3+ and The binding of crown ether groups can serve as an excellent dedicated probe for gold ions, whether in solution or on a solid PVA film.

In the process, when G is encapsulated by CB[7] in a dynamic sliding manner to form pseudo[5] rotaxane, At the same time, macrocyclic confinement not only effectively achieved blue shift, increased fluorescence intensity, and increased fluorescence lifetime, but also yielded larger nanoparticles. Larger nanoparticles were formed through electrostatic interactions and the cascade assembly of negatively charged SBE-β-CD. It further improved fluorescence emission, but the increase in fluorescence lifetime was minimal. The chemical structural formula of its building blocks is as follows:

Co-assembly controls the topological changes of nanoparticles from small to large, further shifting fluorescence from 530nm to 515nm and increasing intensity by 9.9 times.
