New 2,4,5-triarylimidazoles based on a phenylalanine core: synthesis, photophysical characterization and evaluation as fluorimetric chemosensors for ion recognition

Novel fluorescent 4,5-diarylimidazolyl-phenylalanines 3a-d were prepared by reaction of N-tert-butyloxycarbonyl-4-formylphenylalanine methyl ester and appropriate (hetero)aromatic diones. The photophysical properties of these new unnatural amino acids were evaluated by UV-Vis absorption and fluoresc...
