obtained from an RF-5301PCspectrometer. Ultravioletevisible
(UVevis) spectra were obtained using a PerkineElmer Lambda 25
spectrophotometer. Specific rotation was determined with a Ruo-
lolph Research Analyfical Autopol I. C, H and N of elemental anal-
yses were performed on an Elementar Vario MICRO analyzer.
Molecular weight was measured by GPC with Waters-244 HPLC
pump and THF was used as solvent and relative to polystyrene
standards. TGA was conducted on a PerkineElmer Pyris-1 instru-
ment under N2 atmosphere.

BuLi (15.0 mL, 2.5 mol/L in hexanes, 37.5 mmol) was added by
syringe injection at ꢁ78 ꢂC under a N2 atmosphere. After the
reaction mixture was stirred for 20 min, n-C4H9Br (5.3 g,
38.7 mmol) was added to the above solution at ꢁ78 ꢂC under a N2
atmosphere. The reaction mixture was gradually warmed to room
temperature and stirred overnight. The reaction was quenched by
adding saturated NH4Cl solution, and the mixture was extracted
with ethyl acetate (2 ꢀ 50 mL). The combined organic layers were
washed with water and brine respectively, and then dried over
anhydrous Na2SO4. After removal of solvent under reduced pres-
sure, the crude product was purified by column chromatography
(petroleum ether/ethyl acetate) (30: 1, v/v) to afford a colorless
2.1.1. Metal ion titration
Each metal ion titration experiment was started with a 3.0 mL
polymer with a known concentration (1.0 ꢀ 10ꢁ5 mol/L corre-
sponding to the (R,R)-salen moiety in THF solution). Zn(NO3)2 salt
and other various metal salts (nitrate, 1.0 ꢀ 10ꢁ3 mol/L, H2O) were
used for the titration. Polymer-metal complexes were produced by
adding aliquots of a solution of the selected metal salt to a THF
solution of the polymer sensor.

Compound (1) was prepared according to a reported method
[19a]. To a mixture of 5-bromo- salicylaldehyde (5.0 g, 24.87 mmol),
Pd (PPh3)2Cl2 (174 mg, 0.25 mmol), and CuI (47 mg, 0.25 mmol) in
80 mL of Et3N (newly distilled), trimethylsilylacetylene (17.7 mL,
124.3 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred for 12 h at
85e90 ꢂC. After cooling, the resulting ammonium salt was filtered
though a celite pad, and the filtrate was concentrated, following
purified by chromatography on silica gel with petroleum ether and
acetate as eluent (30: 1). Removal of solvent under vacuum affor-
ded a yellow powder, and the product was identified as 5-
