A Pyrenyl-Appended Triazole-Based Calix[4]arene as a Fluorescent Sensor for Iodide Ion

Abstract

The synthesis and evaluation of a novel calix[4]arene-based fluorescent chemosensor 1 for the detection of I -is described. The fluorescent changes observed upon addition of various anions show that 1 is selective for I -over other anions. Addition of I
