Regulating the fluorescence intensity of an anthracene boronic acid system: a B–N bond or a hydrolysis mechanism?

Ni, W., Kaur, G., Springsteen, G., Wang, B., & Franzen, S. (2004, August 24). Bioorganic Chemistry, Vol. 32, pp. 571–581.

By: W. Ni n, G. Kaur*, G. Springsteen n, B. Wang* & S. Franzen n

author keywords: anthracene-based fluorescent boronic acid; B-N bond; PET
MeSH headings : Anthracenes / chemistry; Boron / chemistry; Boron Compounds / chemistry; Boronic Acids / chemistry; Carbohydrates / chemistry; Fluorescence; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Hydrolysis; Nitrogen / chemistry
topics (OpenAlex): Molecular Sensors and Ion Detection; Luminescence and Fluorescent Materials; Analytical Chemistry and Sensors
TL;DR: This work suggests a possible alternative mechanism for the fluorescence change upon the formation of a boronic acid (1a) complex with diols, which results in the protonation of the amine nitrogen if the reactions are carried out in a protic solvent such as water. (via Semantic Scholar)
