1 General procedure for drawing Jobrsquos plot by fluorescence method

Stock solution of same concentration of sensor and Cu were prepared in the order of asymp 10 x 10-5 ML-1

CH3CN-H2O (73 vv at pH 75) media The fluorescence in each case with different hostndashguest ratio but

equal in volume was recorded Jobrsquos plots were drawn by plotting ∆IXhost vs Xhost (∆I = change of

fluorescence intensity of the spectrum during titration and Xhost is the mole fraction of the host in each case

respectively)

3 Determination of Detection Limit

The detection limit DL of L for Cu+2 was determined from the following equation1

DL = K Sb1S Where K = 2 or 3 (we take 3 in this case) Sb1 is the standard deviation of the blank

solution S is the slope of the calibration curve From the graph we get slope = 3E+07 and Sb1 value is

1212 Thus using the formula we get the Detection Limit = 121 microM ie L can detect Cu2+ in this minimum

concentration

From the graph we get slope = 5E+07 and Sb1 value is 48558 Thus using the formula we get the Detection

Limit = 291 microM ie L can detect F- in this minimum concentration

4 Determination of Association constant

The spectra of these solutions were recorded by means of fluorescence methods Binding constant was

calculated according to the Benesi-Hildebrand equation Ka was calculated following the equation stated

below

1(F-Fo) = 1K(FmaxndashFo) [Cu2+]n + 1[Fmax-Fo]

1(F-Fo) = 1K(FmaxndashFo) [F-]n + 1[Fmax-Fo]

Here Fo is the fluorescence of receptor in the absence of guest F is the fluorescence recorded in the presence

of added guest Fmax is fluorescence in presence of added [Cu2+]max and [F-]max K is the association

constant (M-1) The association constant (Ka) could be determined from the slope of the straight line of the

plot of 1(F-Fo) against 1[Cu2+]n and 1[F-]n respectively The association constant (Ka) as determined by

4

fluorescence titration method for sensor with Cu2+ and F- is found to be 10times105 M-1 and 107x105 M-1

respectively

Figure S3 BenesindashHildebrand plot from Fluorescence titration data of receptor BMPA (1x10-5M) with (a)

Cu2+ and (b) F- respectively

5 Determination of fluorescence quantum yield

Here the quantum yield φ was measured by using the following equation φx = φs (Fx Fs)(As Ax)(nx2

ns2) where X amp S indicate the unknown and standard solution respectively φ = quantum yield F = area

under the emission curve A = absorbance at the excitation wave length n = index of refraction of the

solvent Here φ measurements were performed using anthracene in ethanol as standard [φ = 027] (error ~

10)

The quantum yield of BMPA itself is 088 which remarkably changed to 152 on the formation of a complex

with Cu2+ metal ion and 402 due to binding with F- respectively

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

the cells were washed with normal saline and photographed under various objectives using UV filter in a

Leica DM1000 Fluorescence microscope in presence and absence of the ligand Cells without treatment were

used as control

DL = K Sb1S Where K = 2 or 3 (we take 3 in this case) Sb1 is the standard deviation of the blank

solution S is the slope of the calibration curve From the graph we get slope = 3E+07 and Sb1 value is

From the graph we get slope = 5E+07 and Sb1 value is 48558 Thus using the formula we get the Detection

Limit = 291 microM ie L can detect F- in this minimum concentration

4 Determination of Association constant

The spectra of these solutions were recorded by means of fluorescence methods Binding constant was

calculated according to the Benesi-Hildebrand equation Ka was calculated following the equation stated

below

1(F-Fo) = 1K(FmaxndashFo) [Cu2+]n + 1[Fmax-Fo]

Here Fo is the fluorescence of receptor in the absence of guest F is the fluorescence recorded in the presence

of added guest Fmax is fluorescence in presence of added [Cu2+]max and [F-]max K is the association

constant (M-1) The association constant (Ka) could be determined from the slope of the straight line of the

plot of 1(F-Fo) against 1[Cu2+]n and 1[F-]n respectively The association constant (Ka) as determined by

fluorescence titration method for sensor with Cu2+ and F- is found to be 10times105 M-1 and 107x105 M-1

respectively

5 Determination of fluorescence quantum yield

Here the quantum yield φ was measured by using the following equation φx = φs (Fx Fs)(As Ax)(nx2

ns2) where X amp S indicate the unknown and standard solution respectively φ = quantum yield F = area

under the emission curve A = absorbance at the excitation wave length n = index of refraction of the

solvent Here φ measurements were performed using anthracene in ethanol as standard [φ = 027] (error ~

The quantum yield of BMPA itself is 088 which remarkably changed to 152 on the formation of a complex

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

the cells were washed with normal saline and photographed under various objectives using UV filter in a

Leica DM1000 Fluorescence microscope in presence and absence of the ligand Cells without treatment were

used as control

medium (pH 60 incubation temperature 37 0C) were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 8 minutes washed twice

with 01 M HEPES buffer at pH 74 Then it was treated with copper perchlorate salt (1 mgml) for 45

minutes After incubation the cells were washed again with HEPES buffer at pH 74 These salt treated cells

were treated with the receptor (1mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation the cells

were washed again with HEPES buffer at pH 74 The cells were then mounted on grease free glass slide and

observed under a Leica DM1000 fluorescence microscope equipped with UV filter Cells without treatment

were used as control

3 Determination of Detection Limit

The detection limit DL of L for Cu+2 was determined from the following equation1

DL = K Sb1S Where K = 2 or 3 (we take 3 in this case) Sb1 is the standard deviation of the blank

solution S is the slope of the calibration curve From the graph we get slope = 3E+07 and Sb1 value is

1212 Thus using the formula we get the Detection Limit = 121 microM ie L can detect Cu2+ in this minimum

concentration

From the graph we get slope = 5E+07 and Sb1 value is 48558 Thus using the formula we get the Detection

Limit = 291 microM ie L can detect F- in this minimum concentration

4 Determination of Association constant

The spectra of these solutions were recorded by means of fluorescence methods Binding constant was

calculated according to the Benesi-Hildebrand equation Ka was calculated following the equation stated

below

1(F-Fo) = 1K(FmaxndashFo) [Cu2+]n + 1[Fmax-Fo]

1(F-Fo) = 1K(FmaxndashFo) [F-]n + 1[Fmax-Fo]

Here Fo is the fluorescence of receptor in the absence of guest F is the fluorescence recorded in the presence

of added guest Fmax is fluorescence in presence of added [Cu2+]max and [F-]max K is the association

constant (M-1) The association constant (Ka) could be determined from the slope of the straight line of the

plot of 1(F-Fo) against 1[Cu2+]n and 1[F-]n respectively The association constant (Ka) as determined by

4

fluorescence titration method for sensor with Cu2+ and F- is found to be 10times105 M-1 and 107x105 M-1

respectively

Figure (a) Figure (b)

Figure S3 BenesindashHildebrand plot from Fluorescence titration data of receptor BMPA (1x10-5M) with (a)

Cu2+ and (b) F- respectively

5 Determination of fluorescence quantum yield

Here the quantum yield φ was measured by using the following equation φx = φs (Fx Fs)(As Ax)(nx2

ns2) where X amp S indicate the unknown and standard solution respectively φ = quantum yield F = area

under the emission curve A = absorbance at the excitation wave length n = index of refraction of the

solvent Here φ measurements were performed using anthracene in ethanol as standard [φ = 027] (error ~

10)

The quantum yield of BMPA itself is 088 which remarkably changed to 152 on the formation of a complex

with Cu2+ metal ion and 402 due to binding with F- respectively

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

the cells were washed with normal saline and photographed under various objectives using UV filter in a

Leica DM1000 Fluorescence microscope in presence and absence of the ligand Cells without treatment were

used as control

respectively

Figure S3 BenesindashHildebrand plot from Fluorescence titration data of receptor BMPA (1x10-5M) with (a)

Cu2+ and (b) F- respectively

5 Determination of fluorescence quantum yield

Here the quantum yield φ was measured by using the following equation φx = φs (Fx Fs)(As Ax)(nx2

ns2) where X amp S indicate the unknown and standard solution respectively φ = quantum yield F = area

under the emission curve A = absorbance at the excitation wave length n = index of refraction of the

solvent Here φ measurements were performed using anthracene in ethanol as standard [φ = 027] (error ~

10)

The quantum yield of BMPA itself is 088 which remarkably changed to 152 on the formation of a complex

with Cu2+ metal ion and 402 due to binding with F- respectively

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

the cells were washed with normal saline and photographed under various objectives using UV filter in a

Leica DM1000 Fluorescence microscope in presence and absence of the ligand Cells without treatment were

used as control

Preparation of Candida albicans cells

Candida albicans cells (IMTECH No 3018) from exponentially growing culture in Potato Dextrose Broth

medium (pH 60 incubation temperature 37 0C) were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 8 minutes washed twice

with 01 M HEPES buffer at pH 74 Then it was treated with copper perchlorate salt (1 mgml) for 45

minutes After incubation the cells were washed again with HEPES buffer at pH 74 These salt treated cells

were treated with the receptor (1mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation the cells

were washed again with HEPES buffer at pH 74 The cells were then mounted on grease free glass slide and

observed under a Leica DM1000 fluorescence microscope equipped with UV filter Cells without treatment

were used as control

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

the cells were washed with normal saline and photographed under various objectives using UV filter in a

Leica DM1000 Fluorescence microscope in presence and absence of the ligand Cells without treatment were

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

the cells were washed with normal saline and photographed under various objectives using UV filter in a

Leica DM1000 Fluorescence microscope in presence and absence of the ligand Cells without treatment were

used as control

with 01 M HEPES buffer at pH 74 Then it was treated with copper perchlorate salt (1 mgml) for 45

minutes After incubation the cells were washed again with HEPES buffer at pH 74 These salt treated cells

were treated with the receptor (1mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation the cells

were washed again with HEPES buffer at pH 74 The cells were then mounted on grease free glass slide and

observed under a Leica DM1000 fluorescence microscope equipped with UV filter Cells without treatment

were used as control

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

the cells were washed with normal saline and photographed under various objectives using UV filter in a

Leica DM1000 Fluorescence microscope in presence and absence of the ligand Cells without treatment were

used as control

Candida albicans cells (IMTECH No 3018) from exponentially growing culture in Potato Dextrose Broth

medium (pH 60 incubation temperature 37 0C) were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 8 minutes washed twice

with 01 M HEPES buffer at pH 74 Then it was treated with copper perchlorate salt (1 mgml) for 45

minutes After incubation the cells were washed again with HEPES buffer at pH 74 These salt treated cells

were treated with the receptor (1mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation the cells

were washed again with HEPES buffer at pH 74 The cells were then mounted on grease free glass slide and

observed under a Leica DM1000 fluorescence microscope equipped with UV filter Cells without treatment

were used as control

Pollen grains were obtained from freshly collected mature buds of Tecoma stans a common ornamental

plant with bell shaped bright yellow flower by crashing stamens on a sterile Petri plate and suspending them

in normal saline After crushing the stamina debrishes are removed by filtering through a thin layer of non

absorbant cotton and the suspended pollens are collected by centrifugation at 3000 rpm for five minutes The

pollen pellet was then washed twice in normal saline and then incubated in a solution of copper perchlorate

salt (1 mgml) for 45 minutes at ambient temperature After incubation they are again washed in normal

saline as mentioned above and then treated with the receptor BMPA(1 mgml) solution for 45 minutes Then

the cells were washed with normal saline and photographed under various objectives using UV filter in a

Leica DM1000 Fluorescence microscope in presence and absence of the ligand Cells without treatment were

used as control
