RESUMEN
A simple and easily synthesized colorimetric and fluorescent receptor 1, based on 4-diethylaminosalicylaldehyde moieties as a binding and signaling unit, has been synthesized and characterized. The receptor 1 has a selective colorimetric sensing ability for copper (II) ion by changing color from colorless to yellow in aqueous solution, and could be utilized to monitor Cu(II) over a wide pH range of 4-11. In addition, the detection limit (12µM) of 1 for Cu(2+) is much lower than that (30µM) recommended by WHO in drinking water, and its copper complex could be reversible simply through treatment with a proper reagent such as EDTA. Moreover, receptor 1 exhibited both a color change from colorless to yellow and fluorescence enhancement with a red shift upon addition to F(-) in DMSO. The recognition mechanism was attributed to the intermolecular proton transfer between the hydroxyl group of the receptor and the fluoride.
RESUMEN
A new, highly selective and sensitive colorimetric chemosensor 1 for detection of Cu(2+) ions in aqueous solution was developed. Receptor 1 detected Cu(2+) ions by changing its color from colorless to yellow. Moreover, the Cu(2+)-sensitive compound was used as a colorimetric pH detector based on a color change due to 1-Cu(2+) complex formation identifiable by the naked eye.

A new highly selective and sensitive colorimetric chemosensor 1 for Co(2+) was developed. The receptor 1 sensed Co(2+) by changing its color from yellow to orange in aqueous solution. Moreover, 1 could be used as a practical, visible colorimetric test kit for Co(2+).
