Design and synthesis of a novel PET and ICT based 1,8-naphthalimide FRET bichromophore as a four-input Disabled-Enabled-OR logic gate

- Bichromophoric FRET system based on 1,8-naphthalimide units is synthesized.
- 1,8-Naphthalimide units are designed as ICT and PET based probes.
- System manifests signaling response to protons, hydroxide, Cu2+ and Pb2+ ions.
- Disabled-Enabled-OR, INHIBIT and IMPLICATON logic gates are achieved.
- Three output combinatorial logic circuit with four chemical inputs is demonstrated.
- System can be switched over Disable and Enable mode reversible.
