dc.description.abstractTwo new calix[4]arene-carbazole conjugates (CALIX-CBZs) comprising 2- and 3-ethynyl-substituted carbazole derivatives attached to a central bis-calix[4]arene-containing phenylene ring have been designed for fluorescence-based detection of high explosive materials and explosive markers in vapour phase. The title compounds were prepared in good isolated yields and structurally fully characterised. CALIX-CBZs are highly fluorescent compounds that largely preserve their deep blue luminescence in solid state with no notorious emissions from electronic aggregated states. The excellent optical properties exhibited by casted films of both materials, including their photochemical stability, suggested their potential use as solidstate sensors. Remarkable high and fast responses were in fact retrieved upon contact with saturated vapours of 2,4,6trinitrotoluene (TNT, a high explosive) and 2,4-dinitrotoluene (a common impurity in TNT batches, often used as its chemical marker), reaching near 80% of fluorescence quenching for the later on 30s of exposure. Experiments performed with nitroaliphatic compounds (nitromethane (NM), a liquid explosive and 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-dinitrobutane, an explosive taggant) also revealed a high level of sensitivity (up to near 40% fluorescence quenching in only 10s of exposure to NM). The quenching efficiencies were overall correlated with the extent and strength of CALIX-CBZs–analyte interactions, the vapour pressure of the analytes and the film thicknesses.pt_PT
