In this study, pyrene based chemosensor was synthesized by two step reaction. The chemosensor showed that high selectivity toward fluoride in DMSO. The fluorescence intensity was drastically increased by binding between chemosensor and fluoride ion. Absorption and fluorescence spectra were obtained by UV-Vis spectrometer and fluorescence spectrophotometer. The binding ratio between chemosensor and fluoride ion was also investigated by job's plot method and Benesi-Hildebrand plot. The HOMO/LUMO energy levels and electron distribution were calculated and simulated by Material studio 6.0 Package.

The fluorescence study was performed to see whether the adsorption orientation of 4-biphenyl acetonitrile(BPAN) on metal colloids can be changed by forming an inclusion complex with $\alpha$-cyclodextrin($\alpha$-CD). The fluorescence quenching was observed with increasing temperature to confirm the direct adsorption of BPAN to the Au and Ag colloidal surfaces. BPAN adsorbed on the metal colloids formed inclusion complex with $\alpha$-CD regardless of the kinds of metal colloids. The formation constants, 32 $M^{-1}$ and 13 $M^{-1}$ for Au and Ag colloids respectively, were obtained with Benesi-Hildebrand plot. The molecules adsorbed on both the Au and Ag colloidal surfaces behaved similarly to each other, leading to the conclusion that the orientation of BPAN adsorbed on the metal colloids can be modified with $\alpha$-CD.

Complex formation of water-soluble polyparacyclophanes bearing two diphenylmethane or two diphenyl ether skeletons with l-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate (ANS) and 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonate (TNS) was investigated quantitatively to develop useful host compounds comparing with ${\alpha}\;-\;and\;{\beta}-cyc1odextrins$$({\alpha}-\;and\;{\beta}-CyDs$) in aqueous solution. Benesi-Hildebrand type analysis of the fluorescent intensity showed that the dissociation constants (Kd) of paracyclophane-ANS complexes were $1.55\;{\times}\;10^{-4}M$ for 1,6,20,25-tetraaza[6.1.6.1]paracyclophane(CPM 44) and $1.23\;{\times}\;10^{-4}M$ for 1,7,21,27-tetraaza[7.1.7.1]paracyclophane (CPM 55), and those of paracyclophane-TNS complexes were $6.99\;{\times}\;10^{-6}M$ for CPM 44 and $6.23\;{\times}\;10^{-5}M$ for CPM 55, in 1:1 molar ratio. On the other hand, the Kd values of 1,7,21,27-tetraaza-14,34-dioxa[7.1.7.1]paracyclophane (CPE 55)-ANS, 1,8,22,29-tetraaza-15,36-dioxa[8.1.8.1]paracyclophane (CPE 66)-ANS, CPE 55-TNS, CPE 66-TNS complexes were $1.75\;{\times}\;10^{-3}M$, $3.07\;{\times}\;10^{-3}M$, $3.75\;{\times}\;10^{-3}M$ and $2.15\;{\times}\;10^{-3}M$, respectively. On the contrary, the Kd values of ${\alpha}-CyD-ANS$, ${\beta}-CyD-ANS$, ${\alpha}-CyD-TNS$ and ${\beta}-CyD-TNS$ complexes were found to be $3.98\;{\times}\;10^{-2}M$, $1.05\;{\times}\;10^{-2}M$, $1.38\;{\times}\;10^{-2}M$ and $3.52\;{\times}\;10^{-4}M$, respectively. These results mean that the complexation of CPMs with ANS or TNS is by 5.6-1,975 fold stronger than that for ${\alpha}-or\;{\beta}-CyDs$, and the complex formation of CPEs with ANS or TNS is nearly same as or somewhat stronger than that for ${\alpha}-or\;{\beta}-CyDs$. From the Kd values determined at different temperatures, thermodynamic parameters were calculated and the complexation was found to be a spontaneous exothermic reaction. The effects of pH on Kd values of CPM 44-ANS, and CPM 55-ANS complexes were negligible in the range of pH 1.2-1.8. However, the Kd values of these complexes increased significantly with increasing ionic strength.
