The study aims to develop a new imidazole-based chemosensor with multifunctional properties.
Designed a TBM-based chemosensor.
Conducted experimental and computational investigations.
Systematically studied the photophysical behavior of the sensor.
The chemosensor demonstrated AIE (aggregation-induced emission) properties.
It effectively responds to acid changes and detects sulfate ions.
Showed potential for broad applications due to its responsive behavior.
Abstract
A novel TBM-based chemosensor exhibiting multi-stimuli-responsive photophysical behaviour has been designed and systematically investigated through combined experimental and computational studies.
