The N3O1 tetradentate ligand, TriMeOBQMOA ( N , N -bis(5,6,7-trimethoxy-2-quinolylmethyl)-2-methoxyaniline), was developed as a Cd2+ -specific fluorescent sensor. The structure of TriMeOBQMOA is half of TriMeOBAPTQ ( N , N , N ', N '-tetrakis(5,6,7-trimethoxy-2-quinolylmethyl)-1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane), which is a tetrakisquinoline derivative of the well-known calcium chelator BAPTA (1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane- N , N , N ', N '-tetraacetic acid). The fluorescent Cd2+ selectivity of TriMeOBAPTQ ( I Zn / I Cd = 5...
