In the present study a novel imine-hydrazone based fluorescent chemosensor (L1) for efficient and selective sensing of Zn2+ over other biologically important metal ions under physiological conditions is reported. An enhancement in fluorescence emission intensity of the developed probe with a red shift of ~25 nm was observed for Zn2+, whereas other metal ions failed to reveal any significant change in the emission spectra. Interestingly, the receptor functioned under completely physiological conditions (99.7% HEPES buffer) and has visible light excitability. Sensing of Zn2+ was investigated in detail by absorption spectroscopy, emission spectroscopy, DFT calculation, 1H-NMR titration experiment and ESI-MS experiment. The association constant between L1 and Zn2+ was found to be 5.58 × 105 M-1. The receptor could detect as low as 69 ppb Zn2+. Sensing of Zn2+ is proposed through switch-on of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) and chelation enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) processes after the introduction of Zn2+ into the free ligand. The developed receptor was non-toxic and rendered intracellular sensing of Zn2+ in HeLa cells through fluorescence imaging studies. This journal is the Partner Organisations 2014.
