The anion-binding properties of ureidoquinoline, a derivative of 8-hydroxyquinoline, were investigated. In the presence of anions, ureidoquinoline exhibits turn-on fluorescence rather than its fluorescence being quenched or shifted. These properties are rare for phenol-based sensors. In particular, ureidoquinoline binds to H2PO4⁻ and BzO⁻, while F⁻ binds to ureidoquinoline via its hydrogen bonds when less than 2equiv of F⁻ are present. With more than 2equiv of F⁻, the phenolic OH group of ureidoquinoline is deprotonated. Under such conditions, ureidoquinoline emits intense fluorescence. Under the condition, ureidoquinoline can be used for the detection of fluoride anions under illumination from a laboratory hand-held UV lamp or using a spectrofluorometer.
