Abstract

Trivalent chromium (Cr3+) plays an important role in the metabolismof fats, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and proteins. Moreover, Cr3+ is considered to be a carcinogen and is extremely harmful to humans. Therefore, Cr3+ fluorescent probe L was synthesized by reaction of 8-hydroxyquinolinaldehyde with thiocarbazone. The probe L showed high selectivity towards Cr3+ ion through the color of solution changed from colorless to yellow for naked-eye detection and significant fluorescence intensity enhanced in CH3CN/H2O (V:V=1:2, Tris buffer 50 mmol/L, pH=7.3) solution. The 1:1 binding stoichiometry between probe and Cr3+ was determined from Job's plot, fluorescence titration, ESI-MS and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The association constant (Ka) and the detection limit for Cr3+ were found to be to be 1.00×105 and 2.85×10-7 mol/L, respectively. Moreover, bioimaging experiments showed that L could sense Cr3+ ion in living cells with a fluorescence enhancement signal.
