- A fluorogenic multifunctional inorganic-organic hybrid silica nanoprobe functionalized with silatranyl derivative of Schiff base.
- Comparative studies of response of fabricated material (SB@SNPs) and its precursor (SB-Silt).
- Extraction of Zn2+ ions using SB@SNPs.
- Detection of hydrogen phosphate using SB-Silt-Zn2+ conjugate.
Nowadays, sole recognition of targeted species is not sufficient to quantify or recover it from environmental samples. Therefore, current challenge in the management of crucial species is to improve or design sensing probes which are able to recognize, quantify as well as recover it from various assays. Herein, a Schiff base chemosensor SB has been modulated to SB-Silt after incorporating hydrolysable units for its covalent grafting on silica surfaces. Interestingly, despite fluorogenic insensitivity of SB towards metallic species, SB-Silt was found to be highly efficient for the recognition and quantification of Zn2+ ions. Furthermore, functionalization of nanosilica with SB-Silt produced a multi-functional nanoprobe SB@SNPs for monitoring Zn2+ ions. The 'turn ON' fluorescence emission in SB-Silt and SB@SNPs (at 437 nm and 457 nm, respectively) in the presence of Zn2+ ions enabled the detection upto 6.8 nM and 0.17 μM (LODs), respectively. The maximum adsorption capacity (Qm) of SB@SNPs for Zn2+ ions was determined to be 167.2 mg gâ1. Moreover, the SB-Silt-Zn2+ conjugate (formed by the interaction of SB-Silt and Zn2+ ions) exhibited a complete quenching of fluorescence (at 437 nm) accompanied with continuous red shifting of emission wavelength to 517 nm in the presence of hydrogen phosphate (upto 4 equiv.). Overall, the developed material is highly efficient, sensitive, selective, reusable and easily separable, and hence can be used as a multifunctional nanoprobe.
A multi-functional fluorogenic Schiff base functionalized silica nanoprobe has been fabricated for the recognition, quantification and extraction of Zn2+ ions. The fabricated material can be regenerated using EDTA and reused.212
