Abstract

The condensation product (L) of 4,4'-methylenedianiline and p-anisaldehyde acts as colorimetric sensor for Cu and Pb ions. On interaction with Cu, ethanolic solution of L changes its color to brown while it becomes light pink on interaction with Pb. Interaction of Al with L coated paper strip emits bright blue fluorescence. Metal ions like Mg, Cu, Li, K, Na, Mn, Al, Hg, Co, Pb, Ni, Cd, Zn, Fe do not interfere the paper strip sensor. The fluorescent intensity of L in ethanol is quenched 25 times by Pb ion. The interaction between L and Pb is reversible and the detection limit of Pb is 10 M. The binding constant and stoichiometry of binding between L and Pb was calculated to be 10 and 1:2. Theoretical calculations show that the binding of the metal ions to L are favorable and the fluorescence of L is due to π → π* transition.
