dc.description.abstractThis paper reports the synthesis and photophysical investigation of a novel 1,8-naphthalimide fluorophore containing 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole fragment at C-4 position. Absorption and fluorescence characteristics of the dye as a function of pH were investigated in water/ethanol (1:1, v/v) solution. It was found that the synthesized 1,8-naphthalimide did not show significant changes in the emission properties in a wide pH range. Furthermore the ability of the synthesized compound to detect cations was evaluated by the changes in its fluorescence intensity in the presence of metal ions (Co2+, Cu2+, Fe3+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Zn2+ and Hg2+). Only Hg2+, among the tested metal ions, was efficiently detected due to the aggregation caused quenching process. The results obtained indicate the potential of the novel compound acting as a fluorescent ``onoff`` switch for selective determination of Hg2+ in a wide pH window.
