A "Pincer" Type of Acridine-Triazole Fluorescent Dye for Iodine Detection by Both 'Naked-Eye' Colorimetric and Fluorometric Modes.

ABSTRACT: Iodine, primarily in the form of iodide (I^-), is the bioavailable form for the thyroid in the human body. Both deficiency and excess intake of iodide can lead to serious health issues, such as thyroid disease. Selecting iodide ions among anions has been a significant challenge for decades due to interference from other anions. In this study, we designed and synthesized a new pincer-type acridine-triazole fluorescent probe (probe 1) with an acridine ring as a spacer and a triazole as a linking arm attached to two naphthol groups. This probe can selectively recognize iodide ions in a mixed solvent of THF/H₂O (v/v, 9/1), changing its color from colorless to light yellow, making it suitable for highly sensitive and selective colorimetric and fluoresce
