Visual detection of fluoride ions

Dendrimer-hydrazides are coupled to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons for use in the visual detection of the presence of low levels of fluoride in a sample. The dendrimers can have a phenyl core, a first generation of aralkyl ethers, and an optional second generation of aralkyl ethers. The compounds form gels with solvents. In the presence of fluoride ion, the gels undergo color changes and/or gel to liquid phase change.

Supramolecular design for two-component hydrogels with intrinsic emission in the visible region

We report, for the first time, an in situ formation of two-component hydrogels from pyridine derivatives of poly(aryl ether) dendrons and tartaric acid. The two-component system (dendron + acid) undergoes J-type aggregation, leading to fibrillar type self-assembly in THF-water mixture along with blue (470 nm) and green (500 nm) intrinsic emissions.

Low molecular weight fluorescent organogel for fluoride ion detection

The design, synthesis, and the photophysical properties of a Low Molecular Weight Gel (LMWG) based on AB3 and AB2 type poly(aryl ether) dendrons with an anthracene chromophore attached through an acylhydrazone linkage are described. The gel is utilized for an efficient 'naked eye' detection of fluoride ions (as low as 0.1 equiv with respect to the gelator concentration), through a reversible gel-sol transition, which is associated with a color change from deep yellow to bright red.
