Abstract :
A naphthyridine-based charge neutral receptor has been designed and synthesized. Its complexation with a series of carboxylic acids involved in the Krebs cycle has been studied by 1H NMR, UV–vis and fluorescence methods. The receptor shows strong binding to citric acid (Ka = 1.60 × 105 M−1) and is also able to distinguish diastereomeric maleic acid from fumaric acid by fluorescence.
