An efficient synthesis of unprecedented fused extended-tetrathiafulvalene-dipyridoquinoxaline (exTTF-dpq) dyad is described through the Horner-Wardsworth-Emmons olefination methodology from the dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]-benzo[3,4]phenazine-11,16-quinone (NqPhen) ligand starting material. This exTTF-dpq dyad is demonstrated to act as a dual redox and colorimetric sensor for cations exploiting the proximity between the redox tetrathiafulvalene and the optical phenanthroline detecting sites. Its ability for sensing cations from the d-group metal transitions (Fe(2+), Ni(2+), and Zn(2+)) and also with varied cations such as Ca(2+) and Pb(2+) is presented.
