In this work, we report a facile receptor OMB [N′,N”’-(3-((4-oxochroman-3-yl)methylene)pentane-2,4- diylidene)bis(4-methoxybenzohydrazide)] for the simultaneous detection of toxic analytes (Hg²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions) in environment and biological samples. The receptor OMB exhibits an excellent selectivity and sensitivity which was determined using absorption and emission spectra. The receptor OMB shows rapid detection with lowest LOD (0.62 nM for Hg²⁺ ions and 0.77 nM for Cd²⁺ ions) and LOQ (2.08 nM for Hg²⁺ ions and 2.57 nM for Cd²⁺ ions) values. In addition, the receptor OMB exhibits 1:1 binding stoichiometry towards Hg²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions with binding constant values of 5.5 × 10⁶ M⁻¹ and 4.6 × 10⁶ M⁻¹. Moreover, the synthesized receptor OMB possess ability to detect these analytes (Hg²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions) in realistic samples (food and water) which was recognized using photoluminescence spectroscopy technique. In addition, the receptor OMB is also utilized to detect both the analytes in live HeLa cells. Thus, the overall results indicate that the receptor OMB was more suitable to detect the toxic analytes (Hg²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions) present in the environment.
