dc.description.abstractA chemosensor 1-(2-(6-oxobenzo [4,5]imidazo [1,2-c]quinazolin-5(6H)-yl)ethyl)pyridin-1-ium bromide (BZQZPy) bearing benzimidazo-quinazolinone and pyridinium moieties has been developed for the nanomolar detection of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) in aqueous medium. BZQZPy exhibited excellent cyan blue fluorescence that is quenched on the addition of TNP via turn-off fluorescence response. The UV–visible, fluorescence and 1H NMR spectroscopy, lifetime measurements and theoretical calculations suggested that ground state charge transfer complex formation and energy transfer mechanisms are possible causes for this fluorescence quenching. BZQZPy is highly sensitive and selective towards TNP with high quenching constant (Ksv) of 1.53 × 104 M−1 and low detection limit of 20 nM. The proposed chemosensor is also applicable for the on-site determination of TNP on filter paper and in real water samples.en_US
