Abstract


Vanillin-azine (VA), (4,4'-((1E,1'E)-hydrazine-1,2-diylidenebis(methane-lylidene))bis(2-methoxyphenol) has been synthesized from vanillin and tested as anion colorimetric chemosensors for sulfide anion. The VA was obtained from a condensation reaction between vanillin and hydrazine hydrate with a mol ratio of 2:1 mol for 24 h at room temperature. The structure was elucidated using FTIR, GC-MS, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectrometers. The VA compound was examined as a colorimetric chemosensor for sulfide anion over several anions of CN, F, Cl, Br, I, N3, CH3COO, and NO3. The structure of the product showed agreement with all spectrometric data. The VA chemosensor tests indicated only selective to S2− anion followed by a color change from colorless to light blue in a DMF:HEPES buffer solution (DMF:HBS) medium (9:1, v/v, 10 mM, pH = 7.4). Filter paper strips can detect S2− anion with a color change from white to yellow. The VA chemosensor has a limit of detection (LOD) of 5.4 × 10−4 M, therefore, the VA chemosensor can be applied to detect S2− anion in tap water.
