- Description
- A novel thiophene substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole based chemosensor namely 2-(4-(5-(5-hexylthiophen-2-yl) thiophen-2-yl)phenyl) -5-(5-(5-(5-hexylthiophen-2-yl) thiophen-2-yl)thiophen-2-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole [TKO] has been characterised for the efficient detection of picric acid (PA) based on fluorescence quenching mechanism. In this regard, the electronic absorption spectra, fluorescence spectra, and fluorescence lifetime of TKO are recorded in the presence of different nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) in ethanol at room temperature. The absorption studies exhibited a blue shift in the absorption maxima with the increase in the concentration of PA. In the fluorescence titration studies, TKO shows a remarkable fluorescence quenching with picric acid as compared to other nitroaromatic compounds. Using the Benesi-Hildebrand plot, the binding constant value of PA with TKO is determined and is of the order of 6.467 104 M?1. Job's plot analysis confirms the 1:1 binding stoichiometry ratio between TKO and PA and is supported by the 1H NMR studies. The detection limit is determined and is of the order of 10.08 M. The competitive studies revealed that TKO is highly selective for recognizing PA without the interference of other NACs. The theoretical studies were also carried out to understand the binding mechanisms of PA with TKO. The fluorescence quenching of TKO by PA may be attributed to photo induced electron transfer (PET). Overall, the experimental findings suggest that, the novel probe TKO may be used as a highly selective and sensitive chemosensor for the detection of explosives like picric acid. 2022 Elsevier B.V.
