Abstract

A chiral fluorescent receptor 1 based on cholic acid was designed and synthesized. The enantioselective recognition ability of 1 to mandelate anion was studied by the fluorescence in CH3CN and a 1H NMR spectroscopic method. The results indicate that 1 exhibited a good enantioselectivity to the enantiomer of the mandelate anion in CH3CN.
