reacting 2, 3-diaminomaleonitrile with 3, 5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde and structurally
characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The sensing ability of probe L was
studied with various cations and anions by visual and UV visible techniques. It reveals that L
is selectively interacting with Zn 2+ and CN− ions resulted in distinct colour changes from
yellow to grey and colourless respectively. The probe L exhibits 1: 1 complex formation with …
