Abstract
A simple anthracene based chalcone as a fluorescent chemosensor, capable of detecting Pb2+ in aqueous media, has been synthesized by the reaction between benzaldehyde and 9-acetyl anthracene. The Pb2+ recognition process follows a photo-induced electron transfer mechanism and is scarcely influenced by other coexisting metal ions. Determination of lead in a variety of water samples was performed.
