Fluorescent imprinted polymers prepared with 2-acrylamidoquinoline as a signaling monomer

Org Lett. 2005 Feb 3;7(3):359-62. doi: 10.1021/ol047992o.

Abstract

[structure: see text] A cyclobarbital-selective molecularly imprinted polymer was prepared using a fluorescent functional monomer, 2-acrylamidoquinoline. This monomer was designed to increase in fluorescence intensity upon hydrogen bonding to the cyclobarbital guest. The resultant imprinted polymers exhibited the enhancement of the fluorescence intensity when cyclobarbital was bound. Our results show that this fluorescent responsive imprinting method could be useful in the development of sensors for quantification of nonfluorescent compounds.
