Abstract

A simple anion receptor (i.e. salicylaldehyde-indole-2-acylhydrazone) was synthesised and its recognition properties were investigated by naked-eye observation, UV–vis titration spectra, 1H NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. The obtained results indicated that this receptor could realise the selective colorimetric sensing and absorption ratiometric response towards AcO−  in CH3CN–DMSO medium, by virtue of threefold intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions formed with phenolic OH, indole NH and amide NH.
