Abstract

A new fluorescence macrocyclic receptor based on the Zn(II) complex of a C₂-terpyridine and a crown ether has been developed for molecular recognition of zwitterionic amino acids in water/DMF solution with remarkable selectivity towards l-aspartate (K = 4.5 × 10⁴ M^-1) and l-cysteine (K = 2.5 × 10⁴ M^-1). © 2009 Elsevier B.V.
