Özet

A novel fluorescent probe possessing anthracene with an indole unit was designed and synthesized to detect chromium(III) ions (Cr3+) with high sensitivity and selectivity. The probe was synthesized in one step by mixing two commercially available chemicals, 2-aminoanthracene and Indole-5-carboxaldehyde. The probe molecule (ANT-In) demonstrates distinct properties, for instance, "turn-on" fluorescence response, high sensitivity and selectivity in less than one minute, and low detection limit (0.2 mu M) via hydrolysis of the C = N bond. Additionally, the probe ANT-In was successfully used to identify the presence of chromium(III) ions in real water samples.
