Article Description

5-[4-(dimethylamino)benzylidene) pyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)]-trione (DMP-3H), the receptor was synthesized which played a chemosensor role for cyanide ion (CN) in aqueous solution with colorimetric and fluorescence turn-off responses. Upon addition of CN ion into the solution containing the receptor, a color change visible to the naked eye was observed from yellow to colourless and also, the fluorescence of the solution was immediately quenched. Moreover, DMP-3H exhibited a selective response to cyanide ion over many other anions such as F, Cl, Br, I, SO, OCN, ClO, CO, IO, N, CO and SCN. The detection limit toward CN was 8.1 × 10 mol.L, which is satisfactory enough for monitoring CN levels in physiological and environmental systems.
