description

Four new ligands, derived from tetramethylbenzidine and containing additional amino groups, are described. The influence of pH on the fluorescent properties of these ligands has been studied, and the effect of the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings on the fluorescent response has been established. The behaviour of the new ligands, and that of others previously described in both the complexation and sensing of different anions and cations, are also described.
