Abstract
| - Chiral nitroanilines containing 1,2- or 1,3-diol functionalitieshave been synthesized by nucleophilic aromatic substitutionof fluoronitroanilines with 1-aminopropane-2,3-diols and2-aminopropane-1,3-diol in the melt. X-ray structure analyses confirm retention of the configuration of the chiral center.The novel chromophores are suitable to link reversibly tovarious substituted arylboronic acids which allows theconstruction of new solvatochromic sensor molecules suitableto response to solvent and anion coordination by fluoride.The solvatochromism of the new compounds has beenstudied using the Kamlet−Taft LSE relationship.
