A hydroxyl substituted phenolic Schiff base 1 , used as sensor for detection of Zn 2+ , was synthesized and investigated. It was found that a strong fluorescence emission was observed when 1 bound to Zn 2+ in acetonitrile, whereas no fluorescence emission was detected when 1 bound to other metal ions (Fe 2+ , Co 2+ , Ni 2+ , Cu 2+ , Cd 2+ , Hg 2+ , Mg 2+ , Pb 2+ , Ca 2+ , Ba 2+ , Sr 2+ ) except for Mg 2+ , for which a weak fluorescence emission was detected in the same condition. Competition experiment showed that no obvious interference was observed in its fluorescence while 1 performed the titration with Zn 2+ in the different mixtures of metal ions. To understand the site where Zn 2+ coordinated to the ligand and the mechanism of binding, three other hydroxyl substituted phenolic Schiff bases 2–4 were synthesized and their binding reactions with Zn 2+ were also investigated.
