Receptors are based on a multidentate protoporphyrin-appended pyridine platform, which leaves at least a vacant coordination site for the incoming metal ions. A protoporphyrin-appended pyridine, 2,5-pyridine dicarboxyamidyl-8,13-bis（vinyl）-3,7,18,17-tetramethyl-21 H, 23 H-porphyrin（P-PTP）, was designed and synthesized. Its application as potential fluoroionophore for recognition of cadmium and mercury ions is reported. P-PTP shows chelation-enhanced fluorescence effect with Cd（Ⅱ） and Hg（Ⅱ） via the interruption of photoinduced electron transfer （PET） process, which has been utilized as the basis of the fabrication of the metal ions-sensitive fluorescent chemosensor. The analytical performance characteristics of the proposed Cd（Ⅱ）- and Hg（Ⅱ）- sensitive chemosensors were investigated. It shows a linear response toward Cd（Ⅱ） and Hg（Ⅱ） in the concentration range of 1.0×10-3 to 1.0×10-7 M with a limit of detection of 1.0×10-7 M and 0.5×10-7M for Cd（Ⅱ） and Hg（Ⅱ）, respectively. The chemosensor shows good selectivity for Cd（Ⅱ） over a large number of other transition metal ions, i.e., Cu（Ⅱ）, Zn（Ⅱ） and mixed metal ions.展开更多
