New Amino Acid-Based Thiosemicarbazones and Hydrazones: Synthesis and Evaluation as Fluorimetric Chemosensors in Aqueous Mixtures.

ABSTRACT: Bearing in mind the interest in the development and application of amino acids/peptides as bioinspired systems for sensing, a series of new phenylalanine derivatives bearing thiosemicarbazone and hydrazone units at the side chain were synthesised and evaluated as fluorimetric chemosensors for ions. Thiosemicarbazone and hydrazone moieties were chosen because they are considered both proton-donor and proton-acceptor, which is an interesting feature in the design of chemosensors. The obtained compounds were tested for the recognition of organic and inorganic anions (such as AcO^-, F^-, Cl^-, Br^-, I^-, ClO₄^-, CN^-, NO₃^-, BzO^-, OH^-, H₂PO₄^-
